Tire choices. I would like tall skinny for 15,16 or 17" Rims

[PGG]

I have BFG KM2 on my Blazer now that measure 33x12.5x15 I would like 33 or 34" 10.5 for any of those size wheels. I would like something close to the qualities of the BFG without being any louder.
Do I have any options? I have looked it seems they are not really made.
Thanks PG

Selection in 15” rims is getting scarce. I would look at 17s, as 16” rims also seem to be fading

What do you not like about the KM2?

We've got 285/75R16 (33") KM2's on my wife's Jeep, they are considerably more narrow than a traditional 12.50 wide tire. My only complaint is now that they are more than 50% worn they're really loud where they were pretty quiet new.

235/85-16's came factory on many 3/4 ton square bodies,they are higher profile than a 75 series tire,more rubber between the rim and road = smoother ride..they are about 32-33" tall and narrower than the 75 series tires..

BFG makes both the AT and MT's in 33x10.5R15, and last I checked, also makes one or both in 33x9.5R15.

Been quite happy with the AT KO's in that size, and when aired down seem to be pretty darn good in a variety of conditions. I used to think they were somewhat poor in mud/snow, but for a "do everything" tire, they seem to perform as well as anything, and I don't think I'll switch away from it.

Wrangler Duratrac..... Has become my favorite tire of all time, great sidewalls, good off road, excellent in rain, amazing beyond all amazing in snow, decently quiet...... And definitely more quiet than a km2.

KM/KM2 are now my second favorite tire replaced by this because of its broader functionality.....

Thanks everyone

Pretty sure the 235/85 is the last tall skinny size in production and is dying unfortunately....

255/85/16 generally 33-33.5 and 10ish wide...just look like a bigger 235/85/16

I am a big fan of the wrangler duratracs as well,especially in the snow/ice

I too have the Duratracs. Great winter tire for street and trail. I plan to buy them again....wish the came in 37" though, 35" is the tallest.

Love my DuraTracs! By far the best AT snow tire I’ve owned!

I’m on my third set and will buy them again!
I run a 285 70 17 on my Tacoma! I rotate 5 every oil change(5000 miles), and get 40,000+ miles a set! 2 winters,20 summers! D rating!

I wish they made a 255 80 17!

Duratracs are awesome but last time I checked they don't make a tall skinny.

I wish! I’d have a set studded for winter up here!
