Even wear, still have about 75% tread left (a lot of highway driving), Pretty quiet, getting louder as they wear down though. Great mud/snow traction.

Overall very impressed
I'm curious as well, what PSI are you running? I just put the same tires on XD wheels and I'm at 30# right now and have been playing around with the pressure

I have a set of five and love them. Moved from Ohio to Idaho and done a lot of offroading in both mud and rock and have nothing really bad to say about them. Quiet on the road also for what they are. The only thing is that in a 35" they actually weigh more than a 37" Goodyear MTR/K which is why I will probably switch to those next.

Any other comments would be welcomed also...

What size on what rims?
I was looking @ trail grapplers. Love the look but the weight was an issue for me. I bought BFG km2"s. I love them and have held up well. I am running 35" and they measure 35.1"

I'm on trail grapplers and love them. I have about 2000 on them and they wear fine. I've yet to get stuck with them on stuff I should have. I'm running 34's

What kind of pressure are you running in the KM2's? The only reason I ask is that you are the first person that has said your KM2's actually measure 35". Everyone else I have asked said they measure 33.5", which is why I decided not to get those tires. I was not going to pay $400 more than the Trail Grapplers and get a 33" tire. My 35x12.5x18 Trail Grapplers on 18" XD wheels weigh 107# which includes wheel weights and all.
