*hijack*They are 11.00R16s.I love them,great on the rocks and street.But,I have cut/split 2 sidewalls in a short amount of time.Im pretty sure it is mostly due to them being old and a little dry /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif *endhijack*

Im running ORD flips. And am really happy with them.

If I were going to buy some again I would really look into Sky Manufacturing just because they are one day out for shipping for me and I like how its all boxed. And now that I look at the pic as I'm posting it i notice they have 2 holes so you can move your shackle back.. pimp. /forums/images/graemlins/waytogo.gif

I run with the ones made by backyardbuilt, and I haven't had a single issue with them. They fit snugly, no slop, and they seem quite stout. I "stress-tested" them last weekend, when I ramped my truck, and there wasn't any damage, whatsoever.

I'm running ORD shackle flips. If I had it to do again, I probably would have made my own. They would not have been better, just cheaper. Back 3 or so years ago, when I bought them, I did not have the capacity to make my own. I have had NO problems with them and they are one of the strongest parts on the truck.
