I ran these on my lifted YJ and they were hands down the best tire I've ever run. I'd be all over them for my JK, but they don't get any bigger than 33". I am going to 35s as soon as David @ Northridge has a FT Long Arm kit in stock for me.

Yeah, the ones I'm running now I bought used and got a good deal on them. I have 17" wheels though, so used tires are hard to find.

I do have a lead on some Irok radials w/ only 3000 miles.


I've pretty much narrowed it down to:
KM2's
STT's
or the Toyo's

I know the Toyo's aren't in the poll because I thought they were too expensive, but I found a better deal on them.

I've heard very good things about them on snow/ice etc.
Ditto. I've heard almost nothing but good things about these as an aggressive off-road tire that is also acceptable on-road and very good in snow/ice. I plan on getting these when I upgrade.

My biggest concern is the weight, at 76 lbs per corner.

That is a concern of mine too, but the benefits of the tire (great all around off-road and snow tire) seem to offset the weight penalties (longer braking, lower fuel economy, less responsive handling) if you spend enough time off-road, particularly if you go with relatively light wheels.
