Kuhmo KL78?

i ordered these tires today for beginning of next week. they look pretty cool to me and please someone tell me they are good tires. I can't really find any treadlife information on them tho and was wondering if anyone knew about how long i can expect them to last? Pretty good price i guess for 305/70r16...everything out the door for $700. i payed way more than that for my old bfg's about 2yr's ago! ($100 more anyway) Thats mount, balance, realigning truck. Maybe even alittle cheaper...do you have to get the truck realigned if you only crank it up about an 1.5" or 1"?
Thanks guys

I cant tell you about the tread life. I can only guess they will not pull as well as the BFG's and yes if you adjust your Tbars you need an alignment.

thanks bfg's were amazing imo, but they're a little too pricey at the moment. i know you have to align it but i think i read somewhere that it isn't as important to get realigned immediately if you only go 1" or so? It doesn't throw it off that bad usually what i heard anyway.
