take a look at this tire and tell me what you think...

I'm would really like the features of a MT that is still pretty good on snow and ice etc. This looks like about the best of both world that one could get.

I got an awesome deal to if I pick them up. 5 35x12.5x16 w/ 5 eagle 589's for under $1400.00 mounted and balanced etc. Plus it's got the following...

FREE Road Hazard Warranty with FREE Replacement*
FREE Flat Repair Service
FREE 5,000 Mile Rotations
FREE Rebalancing
FREE Air Pressure Checks

I've included a link below so please let me know how this looks to you.

That is exactly the setup that I was considering for my build-up. Including size and quantity!
Mike at Bent and Twisted suggested the tire for the value and all the extras. He thinks the tires were $164.
Havent done the math but looks close. If you are not in a hurry tell them you will wait until they go on sale-
might get a few $$$$ off.
Are you sticking with standard offset?
Let me know how it goes..... Dave

I have a set of these and they have about 15K on them with excellent tire wear. They are 33x12.5 and there is still about 3/4 of the tread left and they're wearing very evenly. Much quiter than the MTs that I use to have ( I think they were Mud Kings). They handle well in the mud that I've been in (mud cleans out nicely), but I don't know how well they work in the sand, snow, ice or rocks. Maybe someone else has experience there.

Was that for 8 or 6 lug wheels? dave

there is a rancher around here (owns a TONS of land as in hundreds of thousands of acres) that won't run anything else. It's gotta be real good off-road or he wouldn't use it (I know the guy)..There are a LOT of sipes on this thing, and they claim they are really good on ice and snow.
