Where you at in Denver? Im goin to school out in Golden at the School of Mines.

Heres a pic of the truck so you can see the tires... with a basin in the background. They are 285/75/16 but when i meadured they are more like 32.6 in tall. only took a minor torsion bar crank.


I am Military and will be arriving in Denver around the 2nd week in December.

Loved the background on your pic!

I can't seem to find any info on those tires...do you know of anything?

meh if you wanna spend the cash go for the bf goodrich ... im sure you cant go spending ***** nilly though since your military... and im a college student so we have the lack of money thing in common. the tread pattern looks like it should do pretty well mileage wise and so far they havent failed me in on road snow driving.. made a couple more trips up to the slopes recently. im not planning on doing any hardcore offroading cause the truck is still pretty new (30k miles) and i cant afford to break crap...

Thats true, I got the BFG Muds, I would say a pretty DAMN GOOD TIRE, over 10,000, thats right, 10,000 miles, both on the road and off(I love offroading) and they still look like new! 33" BFG A/T's should not cost too much, plus they will last.
