    Yeah, when I looked at it I thought it could be used in an advertisement for something. Took that Friday in the Badlands.

    Have you noticed a huge difference in performance or feel...?
    You have an auto or manual transmission?

    I have looked at this tire a lot because it's a very close tread design to the BF Goodrich AT
    but is less costly, I really have come to respect the General tires offerings in the AT2 after watching all that Expedition Overland has put them through. That being said they seem to run heavier than almost every other AT tire in the same size and ply being 10.

    I am trying to find out why? If your good with them I may have found my next set of tires.

    That kit looks good!

    So any performance differences from the heavier General tires?

    Also I like your running boards, you like them?

    Cool we have the exact same model just different colors...

    I wish I could give you better info on performance, dont pay much attentiom to my mileage simply because of the amount i drive. The biggest thing is the noise, they are louder but not by much.

    And as far as off road , i only had stcok tires before the generals so i feel like most would be better lol, either i like my tire purchase especially for the price

    I got them on a real good deal on tirebuyer.com

    Good looking rig man,

    Love the tires as well. Are they 255s?

    Your sliders weld on or bolt on?

    Anyone ever put a trd sport or off road suspension on your 4cyl ac? Just picked up a 2013 trd sport take off suspension. Going to install it Thursday. Just wondering if anyone else has done this. Didn't want to lift my truck too high but figured that would give me a touch tougher stance
