Think hard on the KM2s, yes they are a good tire and look killer but they are a load ranger “E”, that is 8 ply rated.
The ride hard so the pressure has to be lower than usual; I am running 18 in the rear and 20 in the front.
The suspension will require a little extra tuning.

I don't know if I want km2 or the kevlar mt/r. Either way I'm glad it's going to be easier to find them now.

no way in effin hell am i getting an E... definetly a c. i think if i were doing alot of drifting on gravel like rally maybe, but i not.... be it as it may i will hang the ocasional corner, but not regularly enough to justify an E.

tires will be ordered tomorrow, and camber kit installed and aligned.

When you go to the metric sizes x 16” they must go up in rating.
I would like a pair of “C’c” but that’s the way it goes.
