don't have any pics of them on mine, but they are noticeably louder than the ATs I replaced.

Here is 35"s and I dont think they are that noisy. I like them alot better than previous mud tires I have had on a jeep (mtr's and buckshots) and not much louder than my brothers bfg a/ts were. Wear still up in the air on wear since I don't have many miles on them.

I had 305/70R16 MT's when I bought my truck. Handled fine on the pavement, but they were quite noisy. You could almost hear them over the engine. I only had them on my truck for about 3000 km before I got my H2's and put on a more highway friendly tire.

I really liked them, they changed the tread design last year I think. Road noise wasn't to bad, the stacks probably drowned the tires out

I'm personally not wild about the KM's tread design.
Looks as though they might clog up (mud & wet snow) as easily as the A/T's, which is their one drawback. Anyone know?
The M/T's clear beautifully!

My KM's work good dont clean out quite as good as the old MT's but they are a lot better than the AT's ever thought of doing. I like them better in the sand than the MT's. I dont think the MT's are to noisey. I have had 5 sets of 33-12.50-16.5 between my 92 and 96 ( I drive a LOOOOOT avarage just over 1K a week) Got over 40-45K out of each set.

my 305-65-17 are E rated. and the 33-12.50-16.5 that are in the pic haul out 8500lb work trailer all the time and a 32ft tandem duel and John Deere 410 D back hoe regularly. With that one I come across the scales at 29,830lb and with 55psi in the rear there is no prob at all. pull the same load with my 08 with the KM II's and it dose great. Look at the weight rating in lbs a big D some times show to carry more lbs than a small E.
