Overall good tires. I bought my jeep used with 295's on it. Not the best tire for a hardcore rig due to stiff sidewalls.

Have the 295's about 12,000 miles on mine and I'm just getting ready to rotate them. Probably about 9000 highway miles. Sick looking tire cant beat the $$$. I'm happy!

Had Mine about a year, and love them they are quiet on the road and great off road. I have used them on the beach and some rocky stuff off road and handled great. I also put mine on at the same time as a 4in lift so the gas mileage went way down! Highly recommend them!

So the question is, what is the biggest difference between these and the BFG KM2's?

Probably not many. But you can go with a simple Teraflex Leveling Kit and you'll be set. Here's mine with Toyo 295's. (Toyo and Nitto are sister-companies)

Mine measured 34" under load and I run them at 28 PSI. Very quiet and smooth on the road and better than stock Rubi BFG MT's. I'll have to pay attention to gas milage, but not noticeably worse than stock with 3.5" lift, superchips tune, and stock gears (4.10).

Now what's the difference a lift and a leveling kit?

Leveling kit is a small lift that also eliminates the factory rake by raising the front 2 inches and the rear one inch.

You can usually squeeze 35s with a leveling kit and backspacing.

Two types new coils or "hockey pucks" for OEM coils.
