Which tires would you buy? BF Goodrich KM2 or Mickey Thompson Baja Claws?

What's so bad about the Mickey Thompsons? They have nice tread on them and I personally like the way they look. They are real meaty looking.

I'm not trying to be an ass... But check back in at 20,000 and let us know what you think then. I had to push for 20,000mi and regular rotation. Just my but BFG has always given me almost twice that.

I will say I had the ATZ's. I must say that if that's the case I will give them a second look in the future.

I have owned both. running km2's at the momment. They are rite about the 20,000 on the baja claws. So far I like them both but my km2s I only have abour 5000 on them and the tread doesn't even look worn! Your choice your $
