    Getting a new set of tires soon. What should I get?

    i have the Km2's on my truck in the 33/12.50/15 flavor and love them. i have had them on 3 vehicles now and they fit my needs perfectly. and they are cheap compared to nittos, dick cepeks, mickeythompsons and the like around here.

    multifunction switch issues.

    ya, i mean it technically "works" but i'm definitely not a fan of the hazards thing, even though i barely ever use them anyway, but still. do you think this issue is something i should worry about? something i could fix? or just leave it? lol
