Since I've know you, you have had:
BFG A/T
Bighorns
BFG M/T
37" ProComp M/T
35" ProComp M/T
And now these.
But they are cool tires.

Haha, that is very true. I guess you have become our tire expert now.
-
i have always read good things on that tire. Hope you get more than 300 miles out of this one, lol.

LOL! I may have different tires before Tellico.

My brother had a set of claws on his f350. They didnt do very good on the street. They wore in a very odd pattern. But I here they are great off the road. Let us know how they work out.
-
Geese! Another set of tires! You got your own mount and balance equip too! ;)
-
I just replaced my Claws. I could never get them to wear right. Maybe you will have better luck than I did.
-
Chris is replacing them as we type. :D
-
I had 31" claws on my xj for one ride, make sure you take them down to 9 psi or so...pulled up slick rock with an open front and limited slip rear...I loved them. Would have kept them if I hadnt already ordered my 31x13.5 swampers...
-
I too am going to try a new tire but I won't be able to get them on till next month.
-
:o
How much have you spent on tires in thelast 3 months?
-
I had procomps in same patten and liked them for most stuff but mud.

Hey Ben, how do you like those Trxus MTs?
-
Well I have a brand new set of LTB's and the Nittos will be here on Mon. So if anyone wants to buy a set of brand new ltb's let me know.
-
I like the Trxus tires. I think they are wearing a bit faster than I would have hoped for though. That and the warranty issue I had from the sidewall bulge. I like the way they handle in all terrains and they seem to work really well on the rocks. 10lbs of air seems good. No beadlocks... yet. I will more than likely be going back to my old favorite, BFG all terrains after this et. Mileage is outstanding on those tires and awesome on the rocks! Either that or the BFG mud terrains like what you have. Maybe a 35"?

I love my BFG MTs. I can't believe the wear they're getting. 8,000 miles on them and they still look just like the spare (except all the little stubbies have been claimed by the rocks ;D) Check 'em out when we get to Tellico. I really can't believe it.
You know Doug may be selling his 35" BFG MTs. Maybe you guys can work something out. I wish I could get them.
-
Yeah, I want a set of those eventually. It figures all these tire deals come out when I don't need a set or can afford them. What I really want to do is sell my wheels and get a set of alloy wheels. Save some weight and get some big 3" bead locks! But that is a bit much for me now. Gotta wait till xmas... maybe. The wear on those tires of yours does not suprise me. I have had many BFG AT's and 1 set of muds and have always had great mileage! I bought my tires before dixie run last october and I think they are around 1/2 tread. Not good. I might have 8-9000 on them. I once had a set of BFG AT's and got nearly 50,000 miles out of them. Rotate every 3000 and balance about 2 times a year. Great overall tire.
-
If ya'll are looking at the BFG M/Ts for a new tire, try to wait until September. That is when BFG is releasing the new KM2s in all sizes and I bet you will be able to get the KMs for a really good price.

I'll be looking for the same ones I got now because if they discontinue them, we may be able to find them for CHEAP! When the Bridgestone Dueler MT was discontinued a couple of years ago (my brother-in-law loves those things) he got 2 sets (not counting the ones already on the truck) for $75 a tire! I tried to find a set a week after that and they were all gone. No more in the whole freaking country! So I'm gonna keep an I open come september, and call around a lot to see if I can find a deal.
