Icon14 Maxxis Bighorns

well here lately i been trying to decide what my next tire will be. i been using the tire charts on offroaders.com and comparing tires. i want km2's mtz's or i might even go back with bighorns. they have been great off road and i've always been able to get through anything i wanted to with them. great tire but is it a good idea to spend less money and get bighorns or pay more for bfg's? i get a discount on bighorns too. i just cant decide........ and according to the offroaders website my bighorns are just as good all around as the mtz and km2. i guess it comes down to paying more for looks.

i have about 12 or 13 thousand on mine at half tread. but keep in mind im 17 and when i got them i was pretty hard on them. i burned out all the time and spun them alot and still do but only on dirt now. i can get them at a great price so maybe i should go back with them. i could always get my money back out of them on here i guess?

Buddy of mine has 33" bighorns on his ranger. nice looking tire and seem to wear pretty descent. Think he paid around 7-800 mounted. How much can you get them for?

My brother has the Big Horns on his ranger and they've been on since last year. Pretty good tire to me. Check out my link in the sig for some pics of them on my truck. They're on page 3.
