    Just tint and ppl for now.
    So which ones did you go with? I paid about $200 a pop for my Duracraps but they have lots of tread left 25k so far. I think I can easily get 50-55k out of them. They are no Terra Grap as far as tread life (got 70k out of them). So, for half the price, Im wondering if its worth it. If you can get 40k out of them, probably.


    nice pic collection!

    I got the guard dogs, which come with 19/32'' of tread, which is a little more than most MTs out there. they were $153 a tire. I also did not get the kedge grip option, which means they'll last longer. i can see them getting 40k pretty easily. now, them staying on the truck instead of getting tossed onto my trailer before then is another story :rolleyes:

    Truck is looking good as always Colin! I'm interested in these treadwrights and can't wait to hear your review of them. Looking at getting a set for wheeling

    Cool, seeing your terra's in action makes me think of using those for street/light wheeling and some guard dogs for mild/heavy stuff

    you can use the terra grapplers on all kinds of terrain, even the heavy stuff. the big downfall to them is they cake easily, which means wet wheeling is just about their only downfall......that, and they keep going up in price

    Lots of red clay and 2wd means I need something pretty beefy for the wet stuff

    wow, 7 to 10 days for processing.....quite conservative on treadwrights part if they have the tires in stock. ordered yesterday, got the shipping info today, and they should be at my door friday. another +1 to treadwright.
