I have KM2's on my rig right now. Ill post a pic later. They are the best mannered of road tire I've had. Not the best in mud but mine have been holding up very well.

No experience with those other two. The wrangler is supposed to be good.

That said, if my truck never saw pavement it would have some style of super swamped.

I have the Firestone tires. I have them on my wrangler in 285/80/16. I use the tires for exactly what you are doing. I just drive to work (8 miles) and drive to the hunting camp - where it goes everywhere. No problems and clean out really well.

I had a set of Wrangler's on my Titan. I did not like them at all.

Firestone
These are the ones im leaning towards. Read some reviews about them chunking but I think that ws because they were on a heavier truck.

These are at 41k miles





By far the best any mud tires have done on this truck.

No doubt BFG is top of the line. The Firestone are just easier on the wallet and still a good tire
