    It holds a resi. No sheer load. No side load. It's literally a picture frame hanger. It will be fine.

    I am. @BudMan is too. They're alright. Not great for mud. I heard they're good in the snow. My next tire will be a mud terrain. That decision was easily made at the NorCal camping spot in May. You were there. @jberry813 has the pictures.

    I have duratracs on the T4R. And just ordered them for my tundra. It's a really good all around tire when snow is a definitive terrain. The sidewall sucks, but they do everything else pretty well. Not a tire I would pick for my Tacoma, but for a rig that does 90% street with excursions, it's hard to complain.

    That's the problem though at least thats what I observed during my morning commute. Instead of having car pool now anyone that has fast track can jump in which is what was going on this morning headed to Dublin. So car pool is now moving just as slow as all other lanes because hella people with fast track jumped in.

    Then on the way back from Dublin traffic was moving at the limit but everyone was in the right 3 lanes because no one wanted to pay. So now you are stuck behind people doing at or just under the limit in all 3 lanes with no way around unless you jump in the pay lane which prior anyone could have drove in during none commute hours.

    Love my mtrs but want to try the stt pros for my next set. With that said @Lee_533 has followed me pretty much everywhere except for the rubicon on his duratracs and been just fine. He just doesn't air down as low as me

    I had Duratracs before and liked them but had a hard time keeping them balanced. This was before my SCS wheels which have really solved a lot of my balancing woes though.

    I really like my BFG m/ts

    They’re really loud but on and off road do really well.

    Although not so much in snow/ice but m/ts don’t do well in those conditions anyway.

    Some really cool shit

    As I was trying to feed the hose clamp (forgot to do it before hand) through the back I moved it a bit outboard, it went a bit too far. Again, with the bumper brace in place I don't see an issue. Like you said. Just made me a little nervous at first.

    I can’t say enough good things about my Falken AT3W’s. Great on the street and limited snow I’ve encountered. Hold well on rain as well. @sytfu510 has a ton of dirt miles on his if you want a more off road review.

    I see what you did there.

    But it’s easy to have a good review from the parking lot :anonymous:

    Been my favorite tire I’ve owned and I’ve had experience with BFG AT’s, Terra Grapplers, Duratracs and Dynapro ATM’s.

    Went up to Pinecrest a couple years ago during a snowy weekend. Not deep wheeling snow, but icy/snowy streets.

    Anyone going to Parker 425 in February???
    I'm headed Thursday before I guess that's the first of February. The race is the third I was told.
