I've got a buddy in my club that has been running the Mud Country for years. He must like them, cause he keeps buying them

I have been running Dick Cepek FC-II'S for a while now and they are a great tire. Wearing really well and do surprisingly good on the trails for a A/T tire.
That said I am still looking to upgrade to something more aggressive. Probably KM2 or nitto

I lifted and put some on two days ago. As for road manners they ride smooth. Only a few hundred miles so can't provide much info. Check with DTD for price if Interested. 35/1250/17 <img src="https://www.jk-forum.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=535867"/> <img src="https://www.jk-forum.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=535868"/> Sent from my iPhone using JK-Forum

Biggest downside to the Fierce tires is the lack of size options.

What do they measure from the ground to the center of your wheel?
What gears do you have and hows the power?
How did they balance I know good years take some weight?
These look pretty aggressive but still have sipping which should help in rain and snow.
For the price they look to be a good option for a DD.

As for the "Trail Rated" badge, my understanding is this is supposed to be on the 4 wheel drive jeeps only, I have only seen one 2 wheel drive with it.
As for tires I a have put just over 40,000 miles on my KM2's (35X12.5x17) and there is still 8/32 left in the tread. I religiously rotate them every 3000-4000 miles. I have never had an issue with them.
this is just my experience and knowledge
