Yes sir haha.

 

Took advantage of the beautiful Kansas skies today

 

33x12.5's tomorrow??

 

Yup, they should be! it's taken way to long already how it is, they guy is charging me $235 a tire mounted and balanced, does that sound reasonable to what your guys shop charge???

 

We mount them for free and balancing is $6 a tire. I would have to call our tire rep to see what those tires are going for. That doesn't sound too terribly out of line.

 

Ya it sounds about right, just curious to see what the price difference would be in Mississippi, should I paint my rims black? I was originally going to plasti dip them but that's just a waste of time

 

If I remember I'll call our tire rep tomorrow to try to calm your curiosity haha. And if you've seen other members stock rims black and you like them then yeah id skip plasti dipping.. The only reason I'd plasti dip is if I wasn't sure id want to keep them that way.

 

Thanks! And I need to do something to them anyways because they are hideous, a friend said he might be able to sand blast them for me so that's why I was thinking of painting them they have all sorts of corrosion on them and look trashy

 

Yeah mine aren't corroded but they have some road rash lol. Scratched up in places. I think our rims look pretty good black

 

I do too; mrbeggins can pull them off all year round, I'm not sure if it's the black rocker panels that compliment them or if it's just the red and black color scheme that makes it look good. I really wish I could have found a red or black truck instead of white just because it's so easy to make them look good. Black is pretty much the only color that goes really well with the white trucks, all the other colors can be really easy to over due it

 

Got my duratracs mounted up!

 

You need to take a direct side and front shot so we can compare haha. Looks good man

 

Thanks! These tires are QUIET! There is a little hum but You have to listen for it, I was expecting it to be noticeable with windows up. I'll get some pics maybe Thursday or Saturday for you to look at, my tires stick out past the fenders by 3/4 of an inch I'm thinking

 

Yeah mine are really quiet too. I'm sure they'll get louder as they wear but for right now they're great

 

Ya no complaints for me, had a couple people at the gas station compliment them a couple times, they look 10x better in person than they do in pics

 

Looking good man !

 

Thanks!

 

Started to rain last night when I went out rabbit hunting so I thought I would try my new tires out



















The tires did a pretty good job of getting through, they dug really deep into the mud making some serious ruts but the tread stayed clean and pulled through no problem

 

That's what I'm talkin about haha

 

Ya took long enough for a little rain lol, the only bad thing is that I think part of where I went through had some manure because when I got under my truck to power wash it it rained down on me and smelled like a feed yard after
