Anyone used these? I heard they have decent highway manners for a mud tire. I am going to lift my 02 3 inches at xmas break and I am planning on buying a set of 32's or 33's. ANy help would be great. Thanks

Good tire but there are others just as good or better for less money. If you want to spend the money they are a good tire. Nice looks too.

I just found this after I posted a simular question under the off road forum. I have heard that they get great traction and self clean really well. I also heard that perform on road like an all terrian. I'm looking at those tires too. Hawkeye, what would you suggest. Money is a big issue for me since I have college to worry about. I really want a MT that wears well. Heard that the old BFG MTs wear like iron. Haven't heard anything on the new ones.

The January 2002 issue of Four Wheeler tested six tires: Pro Comp Xterrain, Goodyear Wrangler MT/R, Parnelli Jones Dirt Grip, Mickey Thompson Radial Baja Claw, BFGoodrich Mud Terrain T/Z KM, and the Interco 37 inch Bogger. It wasn't a direct comparison between all of them, but the article offers comments on what each one is good at and what they aren't so good at. Take a look at the article and see what fits your needs. Also, tirerack.com has user feedback and ratings on most of the tires they offer.

I have had the new BFG Mud TA/KM for about two months now. I spent a day playing in the mud and they worked out great. I had some real fun in the mud!!! They really dug-in, in the deep mud and when I was going up muddy hills, where my stock goodyear RT/S would spin. But they were also two different types of tires (A/T). The Mud TA also worked out great in the sand. I"ll soon be trying them out in the snow. The only draw back is they are a louder than the AT on the freeway. But it is worth it for me since I wanted a more aggressive looking tire. MMMMMMM I'm starting to enjoy that nice little humming sound on my 30 minute drive to work.

I was wondering about those new BFG Mud TA/KM's but didn't want to start a new post on it because I don't have the $$ for new tYres yet ;-)
