TexasChopper, did you get the Kuhmos? If so, how do you like em? I believe I narrowed it down to either those or the Interco MT's, at least for today that is... i keep going back and forth. These are the best MT's I have been able to find for the money, under $ 250/tire for a 35x12..5x18, been going back and forth on 33 vs 35, but after seeing a picture on project jk of a a black rubicon with Kuhmos on 18's with a 3" lift, i think i made up my mind. Going to kill me with all the highway driving i do, but hell, i guess you only live once and it does look friggin nice!! I'm keepng my stock Saraha 18's, really like em.

I have not bought the tires yet... It's been a nitemare simply trying to get my Jeep at least parked in the driveway.... I went to pick it up last Saturday and there was some paperwork snafu as I am registering it out of state. They are supposed to be delivering it to my home tommorow. (wed)
I have heard a few rumors (last week) the Kumho's are not in stock at a lot of places I do not know this to be fact. Next week I am going to call around for the Kumho's first, if I can't find them I'm going with the Hankooks. They are basically the same tire and the same price (about 265 shipped)

I did see a silver 2 door at another dealer last weekend with 35's and it looked schweeeeet !!!!

These Kumhos are directional tires. The BFG MTs aren't. This may not be a big deal but perhaps something to be aware of.
Kumho is starting to be a respected brand here in the UK. I run Kumho MTs on my TJ and they're absolutely fine.
