    Now, those of us who have been around trucks for awhile know that the bf blowrich rugged crap sucks, however, I did not know that they sucked THIS bad until today. Please observe.
    I subjected these retarded tires to a slippery dirt hill full of little jagged rocks. I attempted to go up the hill 3 times before achieving success... yes of course I was spinning the tires like a mad man but I've done the exact same thing to a set of Nitto Terra grapplers on my previous nissan. Sure it did some damage to the tire but the TG's did not suffer half this bad.
    Get this, my truck has 2500 miles on it. Not that this truly matters to me b/c i'm buying 285's pretty soon since I'm getting the billy 5100's installed on monday.
    Just confirming that BfGoodrich Rubbertrails need to get burned. I'm sure some of you are completely satisfied with your stock BF set, but if you actually go offroad and drive hard, they are pretty much worthless.

    Just a random really sweet pic that has nothing to do with anything! Forget the tires, this truck is AWESOME

    I know exactly what you mean. When I got my Sport and took it offroading, my 17-inch Dunflops looked exactly the same. I had chunks of tread missing!

    Now I have the BFG A/Ts and have had much better traction and no damage (so far) when I go offroading.

    That my friend is Anza Borrego. If you'd like directions I can certainly surrender them at your request for a reasonable fee. j/k.... My old man has a 09Rubicon 4door that can pretty much climb mount everest.

    Although my truck is not 4x4, psh, I make that thing go everywhere w/ the locker hahaha.

    wow i had bfg a/ts on my truck and i hated them i was scared to drive it in the rain
    EVERY incline i went on the tires started spinning and i mean every incline no matter how small it was
    every time it rained i went ahead and put my truck in 4hi
    but i was real tough on the lil tires tho (burnouts and ect..)
    but after i got some m/ts im not nearly as tough on these
