Haha, yeah I will take your truck an you can take mine some time haha.
We will never know unless we write the vins down. They look exactly identical except your tool box sits a lot lower than mine does.

Anyone have a cb they want to sell?

Honestly, the tires look great and they really make the truck look alot more agressive and better..As does any beefy A/T OR M/T. But i think also that you overpayed. And i second the fact that goodyear tires arent that great. Ive heard bad things about them and ive got a set of goodyears on my truck right now, Not happy with how there wearing now. Ive got 20,000 miles or so on them, they got plenty of tread, BUT one of them is cupping badly for no reason at all...Hey i didnt buy em, they came with the truck! So when they where out im going with BFG A/T'S or somthing equal. Ive been thinking alot about my next tire and im going to make a good choice.

Dont let anyone make you feel like crap about it tho, we are all human...Ive seen those tires at walmart eyeballing me before too..But i did my homework also.

I think those tires look good, I just bought firestones 265/75/16 for 526.00 installed. I did a lot of research before I purchased them.Name:  102_0423.jpg

I've seen and heard bad stories with the wrangler a/t tires, hopefully the m/t tires will do good for ya. Let us know how they handle in off-road/mudding situation!

BTW where did you buy 'em? That price seems really steep even with LT rotations and a warranty
+50 to this entire post. There's a reason nobody races on goodyear tires. They're junk.

I think it's common. Mine is doing it on that side and I think Max said his pass side was wearing funny. I know my alignments off AGAIN! so that probably don't help either
