Hey Everyone,
I am on the second stage of me jeep build and cannot find a good overland tire in the 40-42" range. Currently I'm running Mud Terrain Km2's with beadlocks. I destroyed the sidewall of one and took off quite a few lugs on each tire on my last trip. With my axle and suspension configuration I can easily fit and handle 40's and 42's will rub sightly. Unfortunately there are not any traditional tires that go that large and have good highway driving/ life expectancy. This is what lead me to the MPT80 or 81. I have read that the Unimog guys love them but have never seen anyone running them on a jeep and am wondering why. My driving is 60% highway, 40% off road. What do you guys think?
