I just got lucky and scored a deal on a set of the BFG's. I really wanted the MT/R's tread style, but the BFG's are what popped up.
Finding them up here is extremely difficult.
I ended up also running the BFG's on my truck. I had the MT/R's on it and put about 15 miles on them and one stopped holding air pressure through the sidewall. They were a little dry rotted and were from 08. The MT's I didnt run because they were from 00-04 so figured I may run into the same issue with them and didnt want to push my luck. However they didnt have any dry rot. I got the BFG's and they were mounted to 24 bolt humvee wheels and had runflats in them. I was going to run it with the runflats and the 24 bolt wheels but I couldnt get them balenced at all from the weight of the runflats. I prefered my wagon wheels more so I removed the runflats and put the BFG's on my wagons. I still have the MT/R's so plan is to throw the runflats into those tires and mount them on the 24 bolts and see how well these runflats actually work with no pressure. Thats what im going to run on this truck my true highboy. If you jump to my other thread youll see my white truck which is a highboy wannabe conversion was originally 2wd.
