I think thats what we used to have on our old firewood and farm truck. Only used offroad in the fields and woods. They did pretty good and we never got stuck. I'm sure on the road they will hum since they are m/t's.

Looks like a good price for all four tires and wheels. Are those wheels for a dodge 1500?

That's not a bad deal, just be careful tho cuz if you drive it every day they will wear down really fast. I went from half-tread to no tread in 8months but my right foot might have something to do with that

Yeah they should last if you keep your foot out of it, but if you like the smell of rubber every once in a while they go quick.

check on tirerack.com they have a scaled ratings on how the tire performs in different conditions, i remember that they werent the best, but still pretty good, but for $250 youd be crazy not to buy them, even if its just for a spare set thats a great deal

Those rims sell for like $300 on ebay and those tires look more like 35% tread... I wouldn't buy them since you have a fairly new set...

Do you have any type of lift in the front? because a 33/12.50 will most likely rube.
