Most of the service vehicles out here are on the Yokos.

What do you want them for? Reason I ask is that the KL71s are orientated to off-rtoad where the Yokos are more on road with a hint of off road (I would say more road bias than the BFG A/T).

I have the Kuhmos in 265/75-16 and absolutely love them. Excellent on road manners and very very good off road. They are a bit 'lumpy' up till about 10mph but after that they are relatively quiet and behave well. Only thing I do not like like about them is if you hit a puddle on the side of the road they do tend to drag you into the kurb. Keeps you awake though!!!
