I`m in process or tire shoping and discovered a winner in the 34x10.5 LTB but am worried it will wear too fast on road. i dont mind loudness. but dont wanna waste money.. And as long as it goes im ok with it.. the wobble on road is fine.. i very rarely go on highway/ Any reviews or opinions on this tire would help.. anyonne who has them send pics ands asdvice... thanks guys

stay dirty

 

great wheeling tires, but they will only last 15k or so miles on the road.

 

They are soft (which is great offroad) but they are bias ply, not radial. Not recommended for daily use really. If you park them for a long time, they get flat spots that take a while to get out.

But for a cheap part-time wheeling tire, they can't be beat. Very affordable.

 

I had them on my Zuki and they were badass in the mud. I dont know how they were on the street I drove on them maybe a mile or 2 on paved roads

 

They work great offroad. I have a neighbor had them on his F-150 (1978) and they tore up on some mud the one time I saw them in action.

 

well thius is my daily driver and i Love to mud!!!! sick of these BS 255 70`s dueler at`s such garbage they cake up.. and i am on tight budget... But dont wanna waste money... so yay or nay????

 

Nay. Down the road you'll spend MORE money. Save up for some Mickey Thompson MTZ's, or some ProComp Extreme MT's or other siped mud tire. Get something with siping on the tread blocks so you don't slide in the rain. I had some smooth block mud tires and they were awful in the rain.

 

i was hoping for a yay hahaha but how abouut BFG muddterains?!?!?

 

Good tires. Can't remember if they're siped or not. I still recommend siping no matter what anyone tells you. Unsiped muds are fishtailing waiting to happen.

 

sounds fun to me,,, i would hate to slide out n hit a field or worse a cow or dear haha. wuts the cheapest mud tire available? im waiting to see wut body lift does.. a want 33-35 not sure yet

 

Not sure what the cheapest is. Get an offroading mag and ply the ads to find what's going on, then hit the internet and see how well you can do and check if they're siped or not.

 

the "new" BFG M/T's (the new style tread, the old tread design isn't sipped) are sipped and since you have 16" wheels, you should be able to get them.......they are great tires and work well on and off road...you should be able to get roughly 50,000 miles out of them if you rotate and keep the air up...

 

idk wut sipped is i guessin just not a flat treaded tire but i love to slide.. i looking for cheap mud tires that canhandle roads semi decently. i dont drive ALOT,, almost as much off as on. .

 

see how the tread is smooth in this picture of the "old" BFG M/T tread design? The old design was not sipped:



see the small "cracks" in the "new" BFG M/T tread design, those are sippes:




sippes allow the water to escape from under the tread, decreasing your hydroplaneing and increasing your wet traction.

 

got ya thanks for tutorial lol... new ones pricier? any recomendations for a good plase to get tires i got a connect at a tire plac ewho can hook me up for price almost,, with extra 40 or 50 for him.. but i dont wanna get price until i see wut 3"BL does and how big i can go, but im just checking out options.. again trying to stay cheap

 

(lifted97)^^^^ and that is why my next set of tires will be the new design of the BFG Muds (KM2) siping helps out a lot on wet roads. Especially when you only get rain once every few months during certain times of the year. Then all those road oils and crap make the roads treacherous. I was driving with my girlfriend in a 99' 4x4 Dakota with new BFG Muds and if you got on the gas a little to much it would slip all over. Siped muds make a big difference.

 

I had a similar experience and took out someone's mailbox. I've been arguing for siped mud tires every since, lol. Even earlier in this thread in case you didn't read it all. I can't think of too many folks who would argue either.

 

Who would want to argue with Mr. Griggs?

 

Maxxis Buckshots you can get 4 35's for 600 shipped to your door

 

Well...Zach Beard for one!

Though maybe not on this subject.

 

I was just being a smarty pants. I respect all you guys that are so knowledeable. You make good points and I learn things.

 

I could tell you but they never made it out of the back of the truck, but I wouldn't get them for a DD like everyone else said.

 

Man, when you decide to carry a spare tire, you don't fool around!

 

I second the Buckshots, lots of people around here love them in the mud and get good mileage with them as well.

 

Casey, omg, please wash your truck. You're a disgusting pig and no one likes you. Dang
