    You're probably not going to find them cheaper than that. I paid a little more from Jegs which at the time (last summer) were the cheapest. Great tire BTW.

    I didn’t think so, figured that was probably the best.

    And thanks for vouching for them, everything I’ve read has been good.

    Thinking about picking a set of these up in 33x10-5-15. 4 wheel parts is the cheapest I've seen, $623.88 after the discount and mail in rebate. They look awesome I'm just a little concerned as there aren't that many long term reviews of how long they've lasted. I have no doubt they'll do good offroad, just don't want a tire that will wear out super quick

    If it helps, my buddy liked them at first, but ended up hating them. They were louder than my STT Pros, had constant balancing issues, poor traction in wet weather (for a mud tire), and wore quickly. After 15k miles, they had about 30% tread left. He ended up replacing them with STT Pros.

    I have 3k on mine, which isn’t anything, and they still look brand new. Lots of pavement driving to the mountain and back. I do have a slight vibration issue at 50 mph but that’s it, I’m gonna go get them rebalanced by Big O and see if that fixes it.

    They are pretty loud also but that’s expected.

    Bummer! I was hoping to hear the opposite haha.. I would be seriously looking at the STT pros, but I'm almost positive they only make them in 12.5 width and I'm really trying to stay at 10.5

    I think there really nice tires honestly, but can’t give you a long term review cause I haven’t had them very long.

    This.. That's the problem is I haven't seen many long term reviews. Tons of people with a few thousand miles. Still good to hear, but I'm really curious how they will be with say 20k on them

    @Bullzi511Tacoma06 has these with quite a bit of mileage. I was looking at these in 255/85r16, because it’s the lightest tire I can find in that size.

    I have that size, they were 50# which I think is a little different than what the website says, can remember. 4WP has a thing going a couple months ago for an extra 100$ off. So with that and the rebate I got 4 for 499.XX plus Utah tax.
