This things are soo sick! Such a smoother ride compared to those Dick Cepeks. More aggressive tread too. They are also really quiet. I cannot wait to try em out after I replace my seal on my axel tomorrow!

I got em $1100.45 out the door with the warranty and replacement plan from discount. They ****ed up(the wrong tires got ordered) and it took 2 weeks for them to get my tires here.


So Im paying around 100 bucks a month on the card they offer. 12 months same as cash and what not. Finally buildin my credit! haha


(edit): I am never getting mud tires again. Atleast Dick Cepek Mud Countries. They were terrible on paved roads, especially wet. They had terrible tractions when I was wheelin in the mountains. They also wore really easy, I think with me and the last owner, we combined to put maybe 27,000 on those tires? If that. The only good thing about em is that they worked in the mud. Thats it.

They look nice! My current favorite tire on the market. I really want the new Trail Grapplers as well, but I don't see me getting them anytime soon. I can't justify the expense as long as I have good rubber and with 31k on them, my Cepek FCIIs have just begun to show wear.
I can't complain, they have been real good tires and perfect for my 350 mile trips to the farm on mostly interstates and still are decent of hog huntin' in the swamps when I get there. Just kinda wanting a little more aggressive tire than a A/T M/T hybrid that the FCIIs are.

BTW: How the hell did you wear a set of Mud Country tires out so soon? I know three people with that tire, one has about 30k on his with no sign of wear yet and the other two have over 50k on theirs.

This is my tread with 31k on it:

Nice tire I bet, but Nittos have the worst looking sidewalls on the market, with my Goodyears a close second.

I killed my BFG mk2's in 20,000 miles and they blew in the rain.

Those sucked dick in the rain. They also werent the best tire to be driving around the city in 98% time. Plus I had a heavier foot at the time so that didnt help, but even then, those tires lost grip all the time without even trying to "lose grip" aka squeal the tires just a bit.
