I had 37's on my f350 a couple years back
Loved them. Decided to try out Cooper 35's for my JK. Wish I had kumho again

Cooper's collect rocks and toss them all over the highway kumho tread nice and wide , never collect rocks. Being I had a diesel 4 door f350. The wear was great as well for the massive wait .

And that's my 2 cents

I've talked to several people that had them on their trucks and love them. They also recieve good reviews in magazine tests.

This tire performs awesome off-road and actually rides pretty well on-road for how aggressive the tread pattern is.

Let us know if we can help you with a set. We guarantee the lowest OTD price on all the products we carry and we give all JK members here $50.00 OFF their total with the purchase of 5 tires

I had them on my silverado (37's) and they performed as well as the bfgs I had before that. Price difference was huge.. I may end up getting kumho again for my jeepJK or toyos.. They seem to be very close in price

Was wondering same thing? I heard they don't perform as well as others due to not being able to sipe snow/slush as well.

Like most M/T tires on the market, they are average in snow. For increased snow/ice performance I would recommend siping them.

Does siping tires cause any loss in road performance or longevity?
