Default CTD with treadwrights.

My dad just got some treadwright tires for his ram and I figured that we should do a review on them.
https://www.treadwright.com/p-59-265...den-a-t-e.aspx
265/75R16 BFG AT KO Carcass.
Our first thought upon getting them Wow they look just like the BFG's.
You cant tell that they are bonded on other than the top part of the writing on a few words was missing

Im impressed for half the price of the BFGs they are epic!
Getting mounted today in an hour ill get some pics up for you guys!

I personally do not trust re-tread tires for street use. I also had a very good friend that almost lost his 2 older brothers because of a re-tread failure on thier car about 20 years ago. I still remember seeing what was left of the car. That is enough for me to never use re-treads.

I realize that was 20 years ago and technology has changed, but I will not run them.

You can run up to 31s on those rims and I would keep those rims. If anything i'm sure someone would trade you a set of nice craigers for them

Drove the ram today.(someone stole 5 gallons of gas from the heep.) I love them so far! Just as tight as the bfgs. So we rotated the rears to the front and it is doing well!
I'd be willing to trade for cragars! 16 inch only though!

I love my Guard Dogs. Awesome in the snow, smooth on the highway and after 10k miles, showing no signs of unusual stress or wear.

Could not be happier with them for the price I paid.
