question for the canadian crowd

Heys guys Ive been looking at a set ofmotomaster M+S tires that are on sale down at canadian tire. I'm wonderingif anyone is running these on a ranger I'll be putting some 31 X 10.5 x 15s on.

The nearset I can tell they are a hankook tire as their logo is on the side. I'm thingking of dynapro fr8 or maybe fr10. any info would be great as always pics would be better.

Meh it's a tire. It comes with a warranty. I had some motomaster tires on an old car of mine back in the day. They did fine. Never had a problem. I'd do it. I believe they are on sale this week as well so try em' out.

You'll get alot of negative response on here because everybody worships BFG on this site.

ha door sticker...that funny cause i work at canadian tire and i think thats the dumbest rule we have. my manager even has the wrong size tire on his grandprix. i think we should put on whatever you want. anyway i am running roughriders m+s and they are great in the snow 100 times better the the factory wranglers i had last year....

Ive found a good deal on getting some bfg at 31 x 10.5 x 15 installed and balanced for the little difference im gonna go with the bfgs. Just have to wait till the end of the month now. Ive got a buddy who has a tireshop he used to be affilated with tirecraft but they went under so he carrying all sort of stuff now. I'm looking at 190 / tire. Any manitoba members PM me if you want info on my buddies shop.

I tried in Mission, Maple Ridge, and Coquitlam. I wanted 265/75 they all refused and would only put on 255/70(stock) as that is what the computer listed for my truck.

We're talking Canadian Tire brand tires getting mounted @ Canadian tire. They won't do it.

I got mine from james out in hatzic. He is awesome, decent prices too. I paid cash and he gave me a better deal. I've heard really good things about tires plus too, my buddy had a dual exhaust put on his truck there and they did an amazing job.
