    I might give the 315's a try. Just got two brand new MTRs though so it will be a bit before I get them. Maybe get new rims and try them out. Lemme know how y'all like them cuz my MTRs went up $30 a tire

    This makes so much sense...

    Just pulled the trigger on mine... $527 to my door, for 4 "Wardens". Can't wait to put them on my new SCS F5's.

    Not sure how well they perform compared to MTRs. I can run 12 paid on stock rims and love it

    I put $1490.00 in 5 wheels and 5 tires when I got my guarddogs.Any decent brand name tire I looked at in 285s was going to be $12-1400 for just 4 tires.If I ever wear these out I will probably try the Wardens next time.But the guarddogs are great.Just a little noisey.

    You dont buy the guard dogs expecting them not to be noisey, thats 1/2 the fun of running mud tires.

    How noisy are we talking? Slight hum, or 747 about to take off?

    I think one of our local guys worded it best, like an electric motor whine. Not bad at all.

    Oh that's not too terribly bad. So long as its not heavily interfering with communication within the vehicle or drowning out my stereo I'm fine. I've thought of getting some stuff for more sound deadening to help out with the M/Ts.

    My BFG A/Ts had a slight hum but I liked it.
