Never heard of them but the tread pattern look cool, but again, I don't buy tires based on how cool they look lol

Yea I mean I like the looks of them, and I can get them locally for $140/Tire. Thinking I'm going to go ahead because I want to upgrade to 35's later anyhow.

Nice! That's cheap.

Looks like a very tight pattern, closer to an AT than MT. I'm guessing in mud they'll be like a drag slick and don't see them doing all that great in rocks. But they are cheap enough so try them and let us know.

They don't look much tighter then my XMT Buckshot mudders and they seem to do alright.

If they don't make me happy I'll have to give them my first shot at cutting a few lugs down.

heydockyle 01-29-2014 03:03 PM

Look in to the GT adventuro m/t they are $130 a piece and are way more aggressive. Wider spaces, big lugs. Had them in 235's and only at 10% tread and they still rocked amazing in snow, mud, rocks

Not that cheap online, I'll have to call around and see who has access to those. Thanks.

The lack of a side lug would make me look elsewhere as well. Be careful grooving a radial tire you can really mess them up if you go just a little to deep. I taken bias down to the cords but I won't touch a radial.

Got them. They have a little side lug. They measure 32.5x12.50. Not too bad. Will give a report once they're mounted and take them out.

Stupid app won't let me add the picture after I get to the attachment page and it gets to 100% and it just sits there so pictures to come.

I run them but mine are the newest ones the 9000's I get them from the Distributor of them to dealers Friend Tire Co.

I paid $630 mounted, balanced, new valve stems, sales tax. You ask about mud I was in mud this week that was up into my differentials where they left a drag mark about 6" deep on top the ground for about 25 yrds. I was amazed with them have had them in up to several feet of snow no problems either. Ice not so bad but nothing is really good there.

Mine are the 9000's also.

Haven't had a chance to take them out yet. Sucks. Went long arm, more lift, and new wheels/tires. Went to take it out and the radiator end tank started leaking :brickwall:

But here are the pictures.
