    Am I missing something Colin? :confused:

    They'll work with 4.10's. Hell the 35" MTR's are lighter by 6lbs a tire than my grabbers.

    What was the name of that hardware store that you and Colin went to when he removed his gas tank skid plate?

    I love that store. And the fact that it's close to so many bars is even better!

    people either love or hate that tire.

    I've seen too many sliced sidewalls and chunked treads to personally run them, but that's just based on wheeling with people who have/had them, not running them myself.

    general consensus, is that while it may have Kevlar in them, that it doesn't mean they are any stronger than the alternatives.

    My conclusion is that it's a better tire for the out west guys that aren't constantly on sharp rocks.

    this may just be aesthetic, but I've seen this on a number of east coast trucks. only closeup I have is of larry's old MTRs.

    Everything I read said they do great at preventing sidewall cuts, but that's not first hand knowledge. I wanted to go with the grabbers again, but the E load range has scared me away from them.

    Too many choices... :goingcrazy:

    Out here in the lava rocks I have been chewing up KM2's while my friend's MT/R's seem to be holding up better, though I have heard the 2 are about on par sidewall strength wise. n0rth has been running TSL radials out in the lava rocks and they have been holding up amazingly! Pretty sure I am going to a swamper for my next tire.
