    Hey, any good suggestions on all terrain tires? Had duratracs and as a daily, they were way too loud and bulky. Pretty much trying to avoid mud terrains overall.

    To clear the spindles. Most kits with fabricated spindles will have a different kpi than stock spindles

    Have a few buddies running the hankook ATMs that love them. Seem to be a great all terrain that isn't too aggressive and should get great mileage out of them

    They are a bias ply tire, you will have flat spots every morning till they heat up, on top of that they are very heavy. Fantastic race tire, not a great DD tire.

    Horrible for a play truck, projects are made for very heavy trucks smacking rocks at 80 mph, they are way to stiff for a light play truck, plus the traction sucks on them

    Flat spot like said above. Also sketch in the rain. I've had mine to about 7 psi without realizing it and it looked the same as 25 psi. Just got a set of 37's Toyo mud terrains for free that im gonna run.
