When I lift, I'm either buying another set of Duratracs or I'm getting Firestone Destination M/Ts.

I've heard the sidewalls are thin on duratracs but I've never had a problem with mine. been to rausch creek twice with them and other offroad spots with rocks and they have done well

Honestly, I'd go with km2s. I love my duratracs but when its time for new tires ill probably be getting km2s or something like them.

she got in to spiders, since she was kinda afraid of them. She would sell them and ship them across the North America. Some went to reptile shows to be sold. She had one nicked named OBT (ornamental baboon tarantula or Orange bitey thing), they come in all sorts of colors and sizes. Ask any questions it's all good. i used to breed snakes, reticulated pythons, pygmy rattlesnakes and trans pecos copperheads.

Alrgith sweet, if I do stop by I'll grab it and then mail you the radio.

I don't do spiders at all but love snakes. Freaked my mom out once by taking about 40 garter snakes from under our sehd and putting them in the empty fish tank we had. Needless to say, she wasn't too thrilled

thats almost as bad as when i fostered an 18 1/2 foot burmese python for house of tropicals in the Bernie. i would take it out front and let it sun in the grass. never had a problem with the area kids after that.

My sister used to breed all kinds of reptiles, as well as chinchillas. Sold em at shows. Worked for her for a while, but she got caught for breeding exotics while she was still waiting for her license. That career path ended quickly.

I got one of these for my spare and plan to run them when mine wear down, Most aggressive tread design I have seen in an AT and I like the lugs on the sidewall for when I air down

I am so glad that "used too" is part of your answer. Snakes and spiders don't make me squeamish,I actually wanted a snake in my younger days . I did raise a Bearded Dragon from a tiny thing until he was 4. His name was Vader.I got sick and no one in my family would care for him, so he went to a guy that takes reptiles to visit schools and nursing homes.
