Yep. I have run them on my truck for 2 years now. Good tire overall. Quiet on the road, good traction, great in the rain. Also wore very well for me. Nice and even, with many miles!

Look into Nitto Terragrapplers. they are made by the same company and have a very similar style but cost less (at least when i got my 33s a few years ago)

They are a good tire. Had them in a 31x10.50R15 on my ranger when I first bought it. Good overall in wear, noise, wet traction, not too bad off road.

I don't have experience with them, but I have heard that they last longer than the Nittos.

i have two friends that had those tires and both flipped their trucks on a wet road going through a turn. one with a ranger on 31s and a girl with a dodge on 35s. but i put them on my dads chevy, they ride and wear great just watch out on the turns on wet roads.

I just got a set of 33x12.50 last week, and I paid $735 out the door. So far I love them, and I am going next weekend to try them on the beach.

I hate 'em. I hate 'em. I hate 'em. I hate 'em.


Hydroplaning mothers galore! Hell....my UNSIPED Mud Terrains are a million miles better in the heavy rain at freeway speeds. Just about s'd my pants a few times with those damn 31x10.50 Toyo OC A/T's.

I'm a big fan of my General Grabber at2's. They wear very well so far and you can hardly hear them on the road. They also clean them selfs well in mud. I'm going to buy them again when its time to replace the set on the truck now
