Thats cheep i wonder if they have 285s.

**Just looked only $118 for 285-75-16 not bad at all.

 

I know nothing of these tires but I suspect they would balance like crap. Really in the long run you don't save money on cheap tires. For about 40 to 50 more you can get a pretty good price on M/T in that size. Just my .2

Call Mark at Calistreets in Redlands. He will give you a fair price on a good set. I got a set of 10 ply Goodyear Duratracs in that size from them for $649

 

that why im asking around because this company makes legit street car tires

 

did some research. Apperantly these tires are sick. They are used alot over seas (australia, new zealand) and are not popular in the states yet. they are easy to balnce do good in mud and snow,excellent mud clearing and good street manners but loud as hell. These are actually the same exact tires as maxxis buckshot but much cheaper.

 

Those look exactly like the Maxxis Buuckshot's, which i've known guys that have run em and they've seemed OK, but not great

 

maxxis buck shots are good tires and these are made in the same factory supposedly... maxxis makes good tires

 

the tread design reminds me of my old KMs which i loved.

 

yeah, I can kinda see that. I've got some KMs on my truck right now and I like em quite a bit. The 1st part of the tread went really fast, but now it has slowed down substantially at about 1/2 tread. They perform pretty well under most conditions imo. Personally, I think for my next set of tires, i'll go with either GY DuraTracs, Nitto Trail Grapplers, Firestone destination MTs, or Toyo MT's (but they're sooo damn expensive!!)

 

Go for it and let us know how the do.

 

Yea i want duratracs but theyre steep $$$ and hard to get right now

 

i know a guy who had them on his '90 toyota
there bout the same tread as the Maxxis Buckshots just cheaper
like Maxxis Bighorns and Summit Mud Dawgs
