    Yes they are, TreadWright makes re-tread tires. Their Warden A/T tread is a copy of the BFG all terrains, and they use BFG A/Ts for the cores, so it looks the same....for cheaper ;)

    Had wheels re-balanced and aligned... got no caster really (Need UCAs!) so bit of wandering. Also one tire needed 16oz! WTF! Calling TreadWright tomorrow for a replacement.

    Other than that, rides nice... like a tank :D

    Yeah mang, ridiculous... looked like they blinged out the inside of my wheel, like half chrome LoL. Seriously tho wtf. They said it is ok to drive with just keep it in the back (not rotate to front)... Yeah right me no likey...

    Funny thing is the only reviews I've ever read in complaints about these tires was that people had same prob with one tire not balancing and then they comment on their good customer service in sending a replacement.

    Guess this is where I'll try for the same :roll:

    Damn I just checked all tires and counted up the balance weights. :(

    FL: 3 oz.
    FR: 11 oz.
    RL: 14 oz.
    RR: 16.5 oz.

    Now I'm starting to regret gettin these :mad:

    They warranty them at 10oz or less. I hope they can do something about this.....

    Hah seriously, but after two attempts...one @ Walmart and second at Big Brand Tire (Both in Oxnard), it has to be the tires...

    I just put in the form for the warranty on their site for three of them, we'll see what happens. I added 4 pictures of all the weights added. Hopin going to two places and havng pics is enough.

    I hate doing these things....

    Yeah we'll see, guess I had to learn the hard :rolleyes: I'd pay $400 more now if I could for the real ones lol. I'll be fine as long as they send me good replacements...they do fine even now.

    I'd rather put that $400 (and another $230) on some TC UCAs tho, I'd like to get my caster up from nearly 0 :p

    Good to know...I've read that LR UCAs are great for alignment but the adjustability causes it to easily get out of alignment when wheelin', plus weaker? anyone know?
