    Trying to decide if the TPMS sensors are worth the hassle of transferring over.

    Friggn awesome Jeff. That is a white wheel I'd run for sure. I have thought about that exact wheel in a 17 so i can run real 35's and bigger brakes... Nice having a full time job eh :D

    This is the 17! Going to get 35s mounted tomorrow or sat. What brakes are you talking about running in front/rear?

    What makes disc brakes so great over drum? I am just thinking of stopping heavy loads and semis and trucks all run drums. Also I am rocking the original set of pads from the factory with plenty of pad left.

    On road? Pretty crappy. If you air down off road they do well in most conditions. If I were to do it again I would probably go with another aggressive AT like the guard dog was. They last longer and would perform better in the winter on road.

    yeah, that seems to be the consensus on the mtr's. i'm torn between a few tire choices and the mtr's are up there, but the winter reviews aren't giving me a warm fuzzy feeling. overall i was pretty happy with how my guard dogs handled everything but the sidewall is showing the fact that it probably had a good 30k+ miles before i even received them.

    Discs cool better. And work fine. But converting the rears to disks aren't worth it. 60-80% of all the stopping power is the front brakes.

    :woot: awesome man!

    Wow really? Crazy

    I love the MTRs.

    But I don't recommend them to anyone that uses their rig as a dd and wheels occasionally on the weekends. They don't last long or wear super evenly usually. Are pretty loud too. And suck on ice and hard pack snow.

    They are the best tire I've ever had for grip Offroad though.

    Los if your truck is a more dedicated rig. They are the way to go.

    Otherwise. Id get the km2s.

    The new KO2s have been getting awesome reviews. Ben likes his. They just need more damn sizes.

    The white looks awesome with your truck! I have the gunmetal and wish they were a few shades lighter, but I still love the wheels!
