The only negative I have read about them so far is that they are supposed to be pretty heavy. Like one of the heaviest all terrain/mud tires on the market. I have not investigated this yet for myself to see if it is true, just something that I read on another forum. Also read a few seperate people say they had a hard time keeping them balanced, but otherwise they liked them.

I used to run those on my old powerstroke. I loved the tire and they looked great, but they are pretty heavy. I had 35's on the MT classic II wheels. I never had any problems with the actual tire being balanced, but my alignment didn't last very long with an IFS.

I was able to gather some tire weights, and they do not appear to be any heavier then any other similar tire (about 55 lbs for a 33" tire). The heaviest 33" I found was actually the Cooper Discover STT that weighs in at 63 lbs, and the Dick Cepek Mud Country at 64 lbs. And FYI, the difference between a 33" tire and a 35" tire is anywhere from 10-30 lbs per tire, depending on what brand you are looking at. That's a lot of extra weight in my opinion.
