brain buys his from ebay, the company that sells them is based here in jax with us. free shipping from that company too. Id say they will both about the same. He had a good bit of miles on his 33s, but just got his 35s, so it will be a long time before we find out the wear life on them.

Maxxis doesn't carry that size in 15s, only 16s

They have 29*9.50(235*75R15 which is stock), 30*9.50, 31*10.50, 32*11.50, 33*12.50, 35*12.50

As of right now, they are out of that size for the moment..

As for the price for those tires, should be around 450-470 price range...Don't quote me on that, but I would say that is the range


I will get a hold of them and ask them about it, they prolly have it in stock and just haven't update the stock inventory as of yet..

Well, considering we have lights trucks compared to most trucks I see on them(full size), you should get around 50-55K depending on how well you keep them up!

For $20 more per tire (or less for smaller sizes) you can have American made ProComps or Coopers or whatever. Why buy Asian junk?

Doesn't change the facts that you guys ignore. Hey, it's just one mans opinion. I happen to be right, but it's just an opinion...

Then you should also welcome lower paying jobs, and a weaker economy. Because that's what's happening, like it or not. Long term loss of manufacturing makes you DEPENDENT on overseas sources, which do NOT have your best interests at heart.

As I said, most cheap overseas manufacturers pay very little, offer no benefits, and have no safety rules and as a result injuries and death are common -- no unemployment or workmans comp either.

Really who you want to buy from? Hmmm...no conscience at all. Hurts America? Don't care it's cheaper! Exploits others? Don't care it's cheaper!

Yes, this is the voice of young America these days (and too many of us old folks too) -- I'm so proud.

So ignore the junk, then -- though I doubt they have any superiority. They are a cheaply made foreign import that takes away from domestic manufacturers and gives your money to people who probably shouldn't have it. Better?

No, we let TELEVISION, big business, and Madison Ave. advertisers raise you. Had we actually spent time raising you, it would have been better, lol.

You've been suckled at the teat of rampant consumerism, and you've never quit nursing on it.
