There's your guy right there. BlkTremor02. He can get em in 33x12.50R15 for I believe $505 shipped to your door.

I'll let the Maxxis salesman let you know how the Buckshots are. (Redneckstone)

So you guys never had any problems in the rain with them. I mean would you be afraid to let your wife or gf drive it in the rain? The ranger is an extra vehicle in my family and my wife drives it sometimes.

um last week it rained here, so hard it was coing down vertical in sheets and i was running 70+ with rain on the road. drove liek a dream, no hydroplayning or anything.

in snow you better slow down a bit but you wont have that problem down there. lucky.

I havent had ANY problems with my buckshots. Yeah, they do suck in 1"-2" of light snow, but thats a northern thing.

I also run mine White out. Be proud!
