personally... the new kevlar mtr's are pretty sick and tend to be mild. probly more than you want to spend tho. if not those then the km2, classy, quiet, and well mannered. kinda regret not waiting for those instead of my red letter grabbers

Tyler get the falken wildpeak a/t save a few dollas and then take your gf out for a night. Plus I've read some great reviews on them and theyre extremely quite on the road. Oh and even when they filled up with mud and clay for me theyd still stick and grip

I can definitely understand that.

Go with the Falken's then, they are a great tire and I liked them. If you were planning to keep your Ranger then I would go with the Nitto's. For your purposes Falken's will be just fine though.

My red labels were cheaper than km2's and mtr's and they have been awesome, tons of grip everywhere and they don't seem to wear out. The noise isn't bad either, about the same as the km2.

I vote for the falkens rocky mountain there quiet on road and off road there badass


Here's a video of my truck

kiltro 01-31-2012 09:12 PM

speaking of Falken, anyone know the difference between the wildpeaks and the rocky mountains?
they both look the same to me.
I need tires, like... yesterday!

They're exactly the same as far as the tread is concerned. Not really sure why they chose to have 2 different names though. I think it has something to do with where the tires are sold geographically.

The rocky mountain and the wild peak are the same tire the rocky mountain is only sold from discount tire

00GreenRanger 01-31-2012 10:47 PM

i would say duratracs or bfg at's

2006crfrider 01-31-2012 11:15 PM

Go with the the BFG All-Terrains. I just purchased them last month and love them. They are super quite and ride and look great. Can't go wrong with the 3 ply sidewall either.

Beef08 02-01-2012 01:13 AM

http://project-jk.com/jeep-jk-new/fa...t-tires-direct This article sold me on the tires

k.blakeley 02-01-2012 06:09 AM

Tires have gone out of site...I called 20+ tire shops and the cheapest I can find 33s in the BFG A/Ts is 900 bucks drive off. 5 years ago I paid 700.

I just saw a site the other day for some retreads that were supposed to be really good. Got great reviews and looked cool. But I forgot what site it was. I will find it for you.

They were cheap too. Like $500 for a set, not sure on the size though.

BLK02 02-01-2012 08:21 AM

I like the look of those coopers, might have to try those next

98liftedranger 02-01-2012 08:28 AM

Those are a pricey tire! You can get the MT cheaper.

Tys 4x4 FTW 02-02-2012 07:32 AM

I think I'm decided on the rocky mountains. You can get them for 900 shipped on ebay. That sounds like a winner to me!

the best discount could do on them was 1160 OTD and that's without the warranty.

I have a buddy who can mount them for free. Can't really go wrong there. lol

Beef08 02-02-2012 08:02 AM

well they're ya go! Now you have 260 for your new gun, your girlie or go buy yourself an EDC ticket since you already live in Vegas

Really? Discount wouldn't match that price? Discount has always matched the cheapest price+shipping I could find online.

dixie_boysles 02-03-2012 12:40 PM

those look like a good tire

Tys 4x4 FTW 02-04-2012 01:27 PM

well whadda ya know. Tire works can get me that falken. mounted with the warranty for 909 out the door! Ordering them on monday!

Beef08 02-04-2012 07:02 PM

Yee! cant wait to see em in a 35

Taylor 02-04-2012 08:53 PM

Nice Ty. Good to hear that you settled on a tire.

Keep us posted and let us know what you think of them.

Tys 4x4 FTW 02-04-2012 10:56 PM

Definitely. Reading and hearing good things about em. They of course tried to sell me on the coopers for 300 bucks more. Nah i'm good. lol
