Just got the Kumho MT KL71's 225/75. They don't rub. A little road noise but that's normal for a mud tire like this.

Wow, very aggressive tread. Please let us know how these affect your fuel economy.

AWESOME! These are my favorite tires and I still have a mind to get a set on steelies for driving around the farm after we get moved (eventually). But at least I can live vicariously through you! :D

They look really good.
Keep us posted of your likes and dislikes after a while.
I'm considering the same ones.

They look super sharp. I'm learning all I can about tires. Let us know why you chose the 225s ( as say v. the 235s) and 75 v say, 70.
thanks!

Looks good! :cool:

I like the rugged look on the E, especially if you do go off road from time to time.

Gnarly!:cool:

Now you need to rip through a foot of snow on a logging road and find some rocks to rip your fuel tank monkey bar off with, like me.:D
