came across these and what little reviews i can find online say they are excellent for the money. 2 showed pics/reviewed on rangers but im curious how long they last and how bad (if) they kill MPG?
I currently have the $72 walmart wonders goodyear wranglers on there and while they do great on everything ive given them they dryrot fast/slip belts and seem to pick up nails and other crap entirely too much. Current set has good tread still but getting an awful lot of dry rot.
they would be going on a 01 ranger edge 2wd (thinking hard about a locker) with the 3.0 and 5 speed trans rolling with 15" rims x 6.5" wide (off an 80's station wagon)
Anyone recommend any other M+S or off road tire without breaking the bank? I drive alot of gravel roads and need a half decent winter tire with occasional grassy fishing spot.
U get what u pay for.......but seeing how u have Goodyear now, can’t imagine they would be much worse if at all....by the time u have them mounted and all u are looking at close to $500 It sure seems to me u can find a better tire for close to that...? Maybe I’m wrong here?

local dealer does mount n balances for $15 a tire.
What tire do you recomend thats similar style? Im not dead set on these but i just ran across em and couldnt find anything bad about em...
I’m partial to BFG A/T (expensive) but worth the $$$$ I have a set on mine that have 63k on them and have a gook 20k in them left....but with at being said what about Toyo tires? I’ve bought cheap tires several times over the yrs and always regret it......I did have a friend that ran BFG long trails on his Silverado 1500 and liked them....his was a 2wd.
yea ive only ever heard great things about BFG's im not sure the ranger is totally worth the cost of BFG's though. truck has 214K on it and no signs of issues or major rust but i have zero other vehicles that use a 15" tire anymore so id be stuck trying to sell em if something dies on the ranger.
On a side note i did ask Walmart people and they said no matter the tire if its sold on walmart.com you can purchase the $10 road hazard warranty for them if you get them shipped directly to the store. Gonna ask at a few other tire shops if thats available so i dont have to deal with walmart...
I run the below tires on my truck in a 35, and they seem to be a decent tire. I believe I got around 30k out of my last set which isn't terrible IMO, and that was with poor tire maintenance on my part.

I get that, but with tires u either pay Now or pay Later.....I guess, the way I’d personally look at it is this IF u were to have a major failure trans,or motor what would u do? Would u Repair vehicle? Or just replace it? Myself I have 145k on mine and will replace them with same.... however, iI plan on keeping my truck for awhile...And if and When the time comes I am able to make said repairs myself..Of course having that ability makes it much easier for me, as I don’t have to pay a shop to fix it...

yea thats the thing i dont have the time nor space to do an engine replacement. Id honestly have to weigh what repair costs would be. Id like to get back into an S10 (yes that probably was sacrilegious to say on here) as i had one for 17 years before literally every aspect was worn out and not worth repairs but i also cant bring myself to sell an otherwise paid off running/driving well vehicle.
