If that’s a legit site, it’s worth taking the risk even if they suck.

They are also on Walmart.com but still sold/shipped by tirebuyer. I ordered will see what/if anything shows up.

I ran them, they are loud and as they wear they get louder. Rolling at highway speeds with top and doors on, windows up, you can count on it being difficult to take or make a phone call. Top off, doors off and highway speeds might want to consider ear protection. They cupped sooner than expected with regular rotations at oil change. They handle fine though. I pulled mine off due to excessive cupping which exaggerated how loud they were prior to the cupping.

They are f load range 12 ply it looks like. They must ride like a train?

Definitely have to chalk to get the pressure right, with pressure just a psi too high and ya get the harsh ride, a few psi too law and your steering is grabby and washy. Once chalked ya get in the “sweet spot”. But even the best pressure doesnt make them any quieter.

For 103 bucks each… would you buy them again?

Thanks for all the info. Any idea what pressure you were running for that sweet spot?

These are excellent tires. Good on road and excellent off road. For a 12 ply tire they grip like nothing else. one of our favorite tires we have ever tested, and our tire choice for our rigs to this day. Don’t hesitate.

Excellent! Watching these now ? hopefully they ship. Looks like the deal is no longer available

Its been a couple years since Ive run them, but if I can recall may have been 36-37psi.

Probably, they worked well on all the different types of soil, dirt, rocks I took them through between soft sand dunes in the desert, mud and rocks. I had them in snow and icy roads a few times as well. I put in between 80-100 miles commuting each day for work and the sound really got to me, especially for several months when the tops/doors were off for the spring and summer.
