What do they say on them besides "Goodyear"?

I had a friend who's family is big in the Baja / trophy truck circuit. They used to run BFG's and Goodyears that had the same markings on them. They were only sold in standard race sizes and were a different compound than the DOT versions. If I remember right, it was a harder tread compound than comparable DOT tires and intended for longer duration at higher speeds, kind of like Z rated car tires for the off road world.
I'm not sure if that's what you have in the pic, but I remember him always getting cool sponsor tires that I could never have.
Maybe some of the CK5'ers that run the Hammers can enlighten us.

We're sponsored by BFG for Hammers and they have a tire just like that thats not public purchasable. Its called a KRT and available in a different tread compound than the public version and has a ridiculous side wall.
Cool looking tires, those sidewalls are killer!

Blah, details details. Im interested in how the perform on the street, plus your wheeling adventures. When my Boggers are done I probably wont buy another set, so Im exploring options.

but you wont like race tires on the street. most are thinner sidewalls = more flex . and compound is so soft it would eat them up in no time on hard /hot street driving.
I mean for the dunes
. I dont think the half hour drive to the dunes would eat em that quick.

Eh, nobody notices that stuff. I know of a guy that runs U-Haul trailer tires on the front of his box van. They say right on them "trailer use only, not legal for sale, property of U-Haul".

They came off a street driven rig.

Idiot friend of mine ended up with a set of those, half worn. He threw them on his truck and wore the rest of them in a few short months. Seemed to be a real nice compound for the rocks, very soft.
