unless the rims are worth 1500, you definently didnt get a deal man. bfg mt are the worst mt's on the market... in just about every category.

That is complete Bull check NITTO'S very own site they show them releasing a 35x12.5xr17 sometime in september NITTO would not be that stupid to eliminate one of the most popular rim sizes

I wasn't going to be the first to mention it, but yeah, my thoughts when he posted it.
They put a LOT of advertising budget into their AT and MT tires, and because of this, they are perceived as a really good tire. But most guys I know who've had them are not big fans.
Kinda like Goodyear off road tires, they don't really perform well, but you see them all over the place...

they are great, highly recommend them, and for the price,you cant go wrong, a lot of people will tell you to not go off roading in them, but i have been in mud and dirt and they were awesome. i heard they peform extremely well in the snow, but i haven't seen the snow yet in these tires
