I called Discount Tire for a price on the KM2s. But they don't carry Toyos. Does anyone know where to purchase?

One post says the Toyos would be too heavy for my 2-door JK? Is there that much difference between the tires?

Also, I've read the thread on the MTR new tires, but I don't think they are out in the 37s, at least according to Discount Tire.

I'm currently running 35x12.5x17s, will the Toyos fit? They are 37x13.5x17s. I have the Pro Comps 7189 which are 17x9. Thanks. Are these tires going to be noticeably different than what I have?

Look in the 37" Tire Show off thread. You will see tire brands and how they look on a variety of JKs.

My question is will the Toyos fit on my 17x9 rims. Just wondering if they are too wide? I currently have 12.5 KM2s on. Thanks.

Toyos: 37x13.5x17

Thanks for the reply! I have the Pro Comp rims (7189). I have the FT Ultimate 3" lift. I might have to trim the pinch seem a little like Way of Life had said to do.

BTW, I have a potential local buyer for my 35 KM2s that I have about 10,000 miles one. If I paid about $1400 for a set of 5, what would be a good asking price for the used ones? Thanks.
