Got some KM3s thrown on today! I haven’t been able to take them on the trail yet, but Man! Do they ride incredible! So much better than my Coopers!
They also look incredible!
Yep. Technically they are the 315/70/17, so they measure a tenth of a inch narrower and shorter than they “35”, but there was about a 20 dollar price difference each tire.
they are E load, however I drove about 50 miles yesterday and can say that this “E” load feels more like a “D”. It’s a super comfy ride.
The Coopers I had were “E” load and you could 100% tell.
That's interesting about the ride... I've never had Coopers so I can't compare, but in general it seems E tires tend to be monsters on my 2dr's. I think I want to lower my unsprung weight. I have Nitto's that weigh in at 79.9lb's each and yours appear to be 65.8lb's each. Of course, mine are 35's but the Nitto315's are only 3lb's lighter and are a D range tire. Hmmm....

I can definitely tell a difference between the Coopers and KM3s as far as weight goes. The KM3 are 8 pounds heavier per tire. Weirdly enough, I do like it though. I have a lead foot and this helps me not want to slam my foot to the floor.
