I have just purchase a pair of Nitto Grapplers size 285/60/18, for my 05 Land Rover LR3. The tires look great on my Rig, and after 5000 miles i realize these are the best AT tire ive had. On the highway i cant hear the tires at all, and they have a seriously smooth ride even at 80. I keep the pressure at my vehicles recommended psi. and have no complaints so far with the tire wear. FYI unless your veh load including trailer is over 12000lbs. there is no reason to have psi at 65? tire specs are per tire.so if at 65 psi they rate for 3000lbs. thats per tire...you get the picture.

for some reason the main page for bfg m/t km links over to this page? Something is buggered..
anywho,I ran a set of 31" r16 km m/t's on my 01 Dodge 3/4ton diesel for the last 6 yrs.. (I dont put on a heck of a lot of miles). 6 yrs translates out to 50 000 miles so far.. and they still have about 30% tread. I;m going to replace them soon since they're starting to crack a bit in between the lugs (from my vehicle being parked 1 month out of 2 no doubt)
The tread lasts great up until 40k where i noticed it really starts to disappear. 50k outta a mud tire is gold in my mind (especially when i do alot of burnouts and sled pulling with them). They heaviest load i put in the box for street driving is about 500 lbs which gave uneven tread wear between front/rear which i kept in check by rotating every 6k miles or so.
My driving consists of 50% ice/snow, 40% dry/wet pavement & 10% soupy mud. I think this tire performs admirably in all those areas. Even though i found it does dig down a little too well as i tore the crap outta my neighbours all dirt and sand driveway pulling a visitor in a minivan up the grade in heavy rain when i 1st got them.
I will be purchasing another set of bfg m/t's in the near future (after i put another 5k worth of vacation miles on them), only i will be stepping up to the 35" R18 this time around. still up in the air if i will try the newer km2 tread or stick with old trusty.
To the Person that stated, "I bought a set then took them to the tire shop to have them fitted" You may have bought Factory Blems, which would explain why they were cheap and wouldnt balance. The set I bought were almost in perfect balance only needing .5 oz. of weights on each wheel, if that. I watch everything when I get new tires, especially if they are this expensive. I make sure rims are not damaged, if I see a tire that requires excessive weight to balance, I reject it as a Factory Blem and demand a new tire.

I have read the reviews here, and I decided to try these tires. 89 Z71 Chevy 4x4 with 32x11.50x15 When I drove out, I noticed almost no noise, I took it down the freeway at up to 70 mph, no noise and very smoothe ride. These tires were just purchased today, so I will keep all informed. One thing I did notice, they are bouncy. they seem to have quite a bit more "bounce" than the same size B.F.G. Mud terrains. but, the old tires were very done. I did notice that the Pro Comps are almost identical to the old style B.F.G. Mud Terrains. I like to keep an open mind, so I will give these tires a chance. The Price was right in there at $900.00 for a set of 4 out the door. My Driving this Truck will be about 70% street 30% all out fun. Since I dont live in the snow, but it is close by, I will probably not stud these tires. Im not sure how much Snow Studs are, but if they are fairly reasonable, I would have liked to seen the dealer (Cooper) throw in a set of Studs with a set of Tires. I cannot rate these tires at this time. I am going to go from Today (Brand New) and find any likes/dislikes.

I have put a little over 50K on them. Mostly hard street driving and ocasional abusive wheeling. There is still some good life left in them. Love the ten ply rating and ability to resist nail punctures.

i bought my 35x12.5r17 mk2s not even a month ago i put my truck in four wheel one time, when i got home i noticed the tires were chunking rubber, they were falling apart the tred was breaking off, less then 50 miles on them an i hit the dirt once these tires suck an the worst thing they tryed not to replace them an said i was spinning them. stear clear of mk2s or bfg
This is my first season to run this tire on 2 Jeeps in my Jeep Tour guide business in Red River, New Mexico. I run 33x12.50's on both Jeeps with up to 8 people per safari style jeep.
The STT's take a beating in the rocks but hold up great. No mud here just sharp wet rocks and the STT does the trick. Next season they will be on all our tour Jeeps. Great tire!
