since its obvious....

I would go with the bfg m/t's.

I had a set on my 83 3/4 diesel and got 55K out of them.

i heard those were a little pricey...i`ll check those out as well...i think what i might do is this....spend the 6-700 for the trxus mts, then see if i can sell my current tires, or do a partial trade for some good 33x12.5 a/t in case if i need to do a lot of driving...

 

[steve_kibbe]

I run at's on the street and these on the trail

They are 33X13.5-16 LTB's on 16X10's
The ltb's are around $140 each and you can get some cheap steelies or find some used wheels cheap too

tsl radials?

[NEK5]

if this changes anyones opinions, i only put about 10k or less a year on my truck....if i know i have to drive alot, i use my moms scion xa

steve kibbe, what do you do, change tires when you get to the trail, or swap before you leave to go the trail??

 

[steve_kibbe]

Well, the pic taken was my first real wheeling trip with my K5.
I drove 2 hrs on the hwy with my at's then swapped them over.
I got lazy and didn't bother to swap them before I drove home, so it was a loud trip.

If I didn't have to drive as far, I would have just mounted them at home, but seeing as it was a few hrs away I waited.

I guess it all comes down to how well you want to do on the trail. I had open diffs front and rear and didn't have any problems, which I contribute mostly to the tires due to the stockness of my blazer(as well as Chevy making a great vehicle)

yea....i only drive about an hour to get to any of my wheelin spots....so far at least...i think i`ll be alright with either the trxus m/t, bfg m/t, procomp m/t, or the goodyear mtrs

now i just have to chose 1 out of the 4

heres the prices

trxus m/t - $150 with $50 instant rebate
bfg m/t - $174 with $75 gift card
goodyear mt/r - $210 with nothing
procomps m/t - $159 with $50 gift card

10$/tire for shipping....

Not to make your decision harder, but Maxxis has a BigHorn that looks just like the MTR but is a good bit less expensive...$560 shipped

When I went to URE, quite a few people were running them. Gotlabs has them on his Yota and loves them.

[steve_kibbe]

it never ends

Sorry, just trying to help a brother out

 

[NEK5]

well, gentlemen, i think i have made my decision...thanks to steve kibbe, and anyone else who recommended running two sets of tires....

i can get 33x12.5 tsl`s for 156 a piece ....sounds like a plan

then i will sell my tires i have now, or do a partial trade, and get some good a/ts

great choice

 

[steve_kibbe]

I think you've made a great choice

Now its time for OBA so you can pack a impact wrench

thank you sir i think you recommended the claws, but i think i would make out alot better with these...this way i have both good street tires, and good offroad tires....

 

[muddermilitia]

Well good luck with the new tires, they will be a lot better off-road than those baja belteds

 

[spoolnaround]

Too bad you're not closer. I have a set of almost-new 33" General Grabber MT that have been demoted to trailer tires.

Good tire. Work as well or better than a BFG, not too loud but wear a little faster.

If you dont mind noise try a Ground Hawg.

 

[DavidB]

Stop being a little ninny and get boggers. You need them to make up for having such small tires.

x2... if your going to run two sets of tires get a set for just mud / trails.

i`m actually still pondering the idea of running two sets of tires....if i do, it will probably be bfg a/ts and tsls....not sure about the boggers....

if i don`t, i`m either going trxus m/t, bfg m/t, or procomp m/t
