There is no perfect tire. In my opinion the C range is better if it has the weight rating you need. It is more flexible which helps with rock crawling and footprint at lower pressure. As far as puncture resistance, think of a balloon. At a low pressure, pushing a stick at it will just...
I would put on the C KO2s. Very flexible for trail, great on the road mileage. That is what the F150 Raptor uses. I plan on the 37" version on my 2 door Badlands, when I get it. The only place they don't excel, although they do OK is deep mud.
Got mine at 7 last night.

I have done some pretty rough 4 wheeling here in Moab with my Jeep, and over the years have ripped off some of the bolts on a standard beadlock wheel. That is my reason for using these wheels (if I ever get my Bronco). In fact I am installing this type of wheel on my new RZR for the same...
Exactly. While you can't do it for prolong periods of time, because you will overheat the transmission, it also helps going over a really bumpy short section controlling the body pitch/roll because it keeps the suspension loaded.
Almost all serious rock crawlers and buggies have automatics. One of the ways you can use it to your advantage is left foot brake while giving it gas to climb a ledge. It keeps the suspension loaded and allows control of speed while keeping forward motion going. It took me a long time to...
As long as you are not locked, (open dif) a smaller tire won't hurt anything for a few miles to get the tire fixed. The spare being smaller is also lighter, which is way better for almost anything. I don't plan on having a spare, just tire repair kit and compressor. Oh, and also a cell phone.
You will probably be entering from LV via the 178, Pahrump is a cool little town to stop for lunch on the way into the park and you can get your fireworks fix there too, if you want... 🙃
Don't forget to fill up with gas in Pahrump, as the price of gas in DV will blow your mind.
The shop that does all the work on my RZR is Moab Side by Side Adventures. They are located behind the feed store on Main Street. 435 210-4153. Great people. I don't think they do any guided tours, but they have nice units. Tell Dustin that Jim Z referred you and he may give you a discount...
If your average off road trip is 8 hours or less, you probably won't need extra gas. My 6.1 Hemi Jeep got about 9 mpg on the trail rock crawling and I hardly ever used more than 10 gallons on a trail, but most trails for me were about 6 hours.
