NEW 35" BFGOODRICH KM2s

Been a looong time since I've posted on here. 33" Toyo MTs were nearing their end, picked up some 35" BFGoodrich KM2 T/As the other day. They read 35/12.50/18, but putting them next to the Toyos, which were 33/12.50/18, the Toyos seemed to be about an inch wider, but the ride quality between the two is completely different. Can't believe I didnt go BFGoodrich in the first place...onto the pics...(these are from my iPhone4, so pics may not be the best) Also didn't get any good pics from the front because of the direction of the sun..

straight outa the shop...

Re

thanks again, yeah, the lower valence that is on there now is actually a replacement piece for a painted one I did have. hard to find those valences but changing that is on the todo list.

these were about $352 per tire from Sears

Sweet, same tires on my f150. Over 27k miles on mine with over half tread.
Although I would never choose to run 18s on a ranger, due to looks, price, smaller sidewall. That's just me though, I think 15s and 16s look a lot better on rangers.
I'll probably switch to 17s on my f150 next time it I get it lifted first.

I haven't used Toyos yet but I've been very happy with the km2s so far.
