    It was a lucky catch. Just decided randomly to retorque the crossmember bolts and looked up and saw that.

    Meh...they're alright. I liked them when they were new. When I first got them I loved them. They've got really good sidewall bite, they float on sand really well, and damn decent in the dirt. As I've put miles on them, the snow siping is completely gone so they pretty much suck now in the snow/ice. I hand siped them this winter and that helped out quite a bit, but still not as good as I'd like. I probably won't buy them again. Not sure what's next.

    The pink sidewalls letters would match the ribbon sticker in my window....but no.
    I will not run grabbers. I don't mind the weight, but they suck in the snow and sand. I need more sidewall flex for my multi-climate/purpose truck.

    Maybe. I've got quite a few miles left on my existing tires. For now my ghetto fab hand siping and bed filled with snow will work good enough.

    I'd go MT/R Kevlars or Mickey T's MTZ. Been the best tire I've had/seen for an all around tire and you can get them in a lower Load Range for the smaller truck.:cool:

    I can't do the MT/R's because of my anal retentive nature. The direction of the tread pattern looks backwards on one side of the truck. And you can't flip them cause the other side of the tire is white letters.

    The MTZ's have the same problem i currently have...no siping after 5k miles

    True, I never spied my current tires, and haven't had any issues because of it.:notsure: and well they've seen every kind of weather!
