I'm torn. I'm about to order some 33x12.5R15 Tires, but I cant decide on whether I want The Buckshots, or the MT/Rs. I do alot of everything, Mud, dirt, and Concrete. I know several people (most notably zabeard) testify thier hearts out about the buckshots, and they are cheaper than the Goodyears. And I've read they last a LONG time.

Anyone with expirience with any of these two (especially the MT/R), what do you have to say? I've aready read alot about the Buckshots, so I guess I really need someone to point me in the right direction.

 

Also, I do NO rock crawling!

 

The mt/r's have become the the "BFG A/T" of m/t tires. Everyone will praise them, as they are a great tire, but just like the BFG, there are alternatives. And the Buckshot has started to become a well known one. Either way you go, im sure youll be happy.

 

i had some mtr's there nice.never had buckshot so couldnt help u with them but i liked my mtr's.

 

What kind of milage did you get out of them, and what kind of terrain did you cover most of the time?

 

well they lasted a while never ran them bald i normally get rid of a set of tires before they wear out. but ilive in florida so no rocks.they did good in the mudd and sand but not as good as any of my set of boggers.they did good on the road though.

 

i like the look of the buckshots better

 

Mt/R Get the Lifetime free replacement warranty

 

plus they have those really tough sidewalls.

 

yea.. dura puncture...

i ahve them and i love them

 

Mt/R

 

i thought i read somewhere on here (or another ranger site) that the buckshots didnt perform too well. they flat out suck in snow, weren't that great in heavy duty mud, and only had their price going for them. regardless, they'll be my next set of tires, lol.

 

for price buckshots

 

I will know about buckshots in about 2 days when I put my 35's on! But they look and feel tough!

 

I was lookin at the latest 4wheel mag I pucked up at wally world and half of the vehicles in the mag have the MT/Rs. Now I'm considering getting a pari of MT/Rs... But have you heard of Mud Dawgs?? Same tread, low price, but I'm not sure about performance. There's a dealer around here that sells them, I'll get a quote for a set of them and see.

 

why dont u wait untill you see my truck on the 17th, might even let you drive it with the buckshots if you like.

 

Because I kinda wanted not not have to driv with the b!tch tires on, you know, the little 29" tires with a 3" lift and not gap guards? Lol. I was going to get some tomorrow, actually. I've got some thinking to do, I guess.

 

its up to you what you want to do, but im offerin

 

I keep telling you I'm gonna steal 'em! :)

 

lmao

 

I love my buckshots. Been through many a bean and corn field to pick up deer and have never had a problem with them. Half the time I don't even spin. I've crossed ditches, climbed steep, muddy hills and I've even had to hook to a few Toyota & Chevy trucks to pull them out in those same fields.


I'd go with the buckshots, they've lasted me around 3 years so far. Got to change them this spring, it's my fault they wore out so early. I was too cheap to get the front end aligned and let the road eat them up pretty good. I probably could've gotten 5 years out of them if not for that.

 

how many miles u get out of them?

 

Yeah, 3years for me would be like... any from 120,000mi to 150,000 miles

 

buckshot all the way.

they look SOO much meaner..

o btw...
dont buy gap guards, we can make some for $8.
if you would like i will buy the stuff for the 17th and you can pay me $8.
just let me no.

 

hey evan hows those car tires workin for ya? hehe
