I'm fucking stupid :oops: I just called my tire guy and he said that was "my price" and he only makes $20 on that deal and for "someone else" it would be $1060 otd mounted, balanced, alignment, tax and disposal. I can see now that I pulled my head out of my ass... sorry

Nice thing about stupid is that most of the time it is just temporary. The worst stupid is the kind that is fix with mass amounts of pain. I have been that kind of stupid way to many times! I have BFG A/T's again and they have proven to be not stupid so, I can like with them for another two years :cool:

If you haven't bought new tires yet you may want to watch this video.

I think a person could rest well at night knowing a good set of off road rubber is underneath their truck. I don't think any of those street sneakers are safe to use. Regardless of when it was produced.

LOL, those are the best tires for carving up the tread and customizing them for your application. That said, they are the single worst tire in the entire world for towing and street driving. Expect about 4000 miles tops from them if they ever touch the street in temps higher than 75 degrees. :wink:

that toyo is good for the first 1/8" of rubber, then its hard as stone and wears down fast, i havent run one so i cant tell you if it seperates at high speed like interco, mtr's, radial buckshots, or maxxis buckshot mudders

a tire i cant believe lasts as long as it does and is excellent at speed, is the yokohama dads running on his h2

did you know GM wants over 1200$ for a drivers side front CV shaft!

those toyos are what MFDB has on his 2500, they are slicks now and maybe 1 1/2 - 2 years old w/ like 25,000 on them tops. my nittos are a few months younger w/ like 20,000 and I'm finally going to rotate them the first time this weekend because the fronts are wearing on the edges from me driving like an asshole.

2 years/25,000 seems reasonable to me for that type of tire. im sure theres longer lasting tires, and the way the vehicle is driven factors into it also. how many times did MFDB roast the tires on pavement ? :lol:. at any rate, ill be content with 25,000 miles, maybe ill try the toyo :lol:

I'm still running those nittos and my odo just hit 80, I think I was around 45 or 50 when I got the tires. still doing great, plenty of tread and I recently had to pull a friend w/ an f-150 out of marshland, broke a strap twice and a chain once, went and got a bigger chain and pulled his ass right out :wink: pulled him so hard he bruised some ribs and got a big bruise oh his head :oops: Guess I pulled a little too hard :lol:
anyway, still love these tires :wink:
