Downsizing on tires and decreasing the aggressiveness off tires. i have super swamper tsl 36/12.5/15 now and im going to a 33/12.5/15. i am wondering what would yall recommend. the KM2 or the Trail Grappler M/T. i only do light offroading but i want the mud tires cause of the look and i have an open diff rear end. i know both of these tires will last close to 50k if maintained correctly.

if yall have any other recommendations to what yall would think would last longer and me a better tire.

No on the KM2's. If it was me I'd go with the Grapplers or Toyo M/T's. Don't have any experience with the Toyo's, but I know the Grapplers are very good. Both made by the same company (Toyo owns Nitto) and both are great looking.

I have seen Toyos in mud and they are pretty awesome. They look awesome too. The Mickey Thompsons are SICK! They pull like champs my buddy has a set on his Yota

Everything I've read online and from talking to my guy at discount tire tells me the Grappler will last longer than the Mickey's. He's had multiple guys get 40-50k out of them.

I had Mickey Thompson atz and loved em road good and had good road manners. I had 30,000 miles on them when I took them off and expect to get 10 to 15 thousand more miles on them maybe more. I jus recently took those off and bought new wheels and tires and put the Mickey Thompson mtz on and so far love them and ride good but haven't had em long enough to know miles but my off road shop told me if rotated every 3000 miles I should expect 45,000 miles out of them.

I've had km2s and thought they were great the only reason I didn't keep them was they were too big for my truck. I currently have a set mtzs and love them they ride really good and are still really quiet after about 15000. Don't know how long they will last but I like em so far.
