MT/Rs came stock on my Rubicon. The tires bite like a pitbull, but they
are very loud on-pavement. To the point that I want to get a 2nd set of
rims for mounting a set of tires with less pavement noise. I'm leaning
towards BFG All-Terrain T/A KO tires. The reports I have read all say
that the tires are low-noise and can still claw around in dirt. I am
trying to figure out the catch (there ain't no such thing as a free
lunch...).

The catch is that the KOs perform poorly in mud. You really can't go
wrong with either unless you run in serious mud all the time, then run
MTs instead of either.

The GY MT/Rs are not as loud as MTs, but louder than the KO's. I'm
running two sets of MT/Rs right now. 35s on the TJ and 32s on the EB. I
love them, but I will say that I find the KO's do everything the MT/Rs
do, however the MT/Rs are a little more agressive everywhere (bite) and
better in the mud. They will wear quicker than the KO's but have a much
taller tread depth to start with.
