Tire preference question
I plan on bedlining and keeping my stock 18" Sahara rims. Given that, there are not many tire choices to consider. I've narrowed it down to four different 33" tires (roughly 33"):
Nitto Trail Greppler MT
Goodrich Mud Terrian T/A
Goodyear Wrangler MT/R Kevlar
Cooper Discoverer
I'm not really afraid of directional tires and the pain generated by that design, so forgetting about that aspect of the Goodyears, what are your experiences with these tires?
I plan on pulling the trigger in the next day or two, so any help would be greatly appreciated.

The only thing ive seen about a directional is the are not very good in mud off road if you do any type of that wheelin', but great on road as far as quality of the ride ... Ive only heard great things about the KM2's ... pricey though .. Can never go wrong with Nitto IMO either

And you are asking about the BFG KM2, right? Not the old style MT that is stock on rubicons ...
The KM2 was at the top of my list until I found that I could save $100 per tire on the maxxis bighorns. Lots of things I can use that extra $500 on.
