Well is this gonna be your DD? I think those Rovers would be as long as, if not louder, than a Super Swamper but I dont have experience with those goodyears so I dont know, and at 183 a tire, thats like dirt. I think I can get KM2's for right now at like 95 a piece so I might actually do it then by 35's when I get my 6.5"

yeah i want to end up selling what is on it right now but the only bad thing about it is that it has a block in the rear, but it could be replaced with AAL or shackle
