Wild country xtx opions please

http://tiresbyweb.com/pc-6594-127-mu...xtx-sport.aspx

What does everyone think of these tires? I am going to buy them locally and not online the guy quoted me at 160 mounted and balanced for a 32*11.50*15. Just started shopping around but have to be quick because my tire life is pretty short on the stockers.

Thx John

For that price just get BFG ATs, find a site online that has them for cheap then go to summitracing.com, they price match.

THEY SUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


I used to install custom floors.....and my work truck was a '94 Suburban with 265/75r16 XTX's......oh my god......they royally suck in rain!!! I'd suggest to stay FARRRR away from those. That's just my personal experience with them. Yea, the tread looks alright...but holy hell they suck.

BFG A/Ts is highly suggested.
