Regul Tires

Okay guys, enough of the "block lift stuff" guy in the paper has 4 trailblazer regal mt 35x12.5R-15LT w/ half inch tread left for 100$$. Sounds like a good deal but have never heard of these tires and or seen theme, the town the guy lives in is about 20 miles from me and the price is in my budget!! What do yall think? heres a pic of em http://www.dwtire.com/Tires/RegulTrailblazerMT.jpg look pretty darn good to me. I wouldve posted this in the tire thread but it would be days til i get feedback, thanks again guys

Taylor

I knew that bluemule, i just dont see me spending 229.99 for 1 super swamper bogger when i can get this good set for 100 obo, prob 75$, I think im gonna hop on this deal and put the 32's that are on it on my 2wheel drive for a wider stance, seeing how none of the tires on the 2wheel match anyways. Still open for compliments/complaints, as i am in study hall right now.\

Regul Trailblazers are a knock off Mudking. In my experience the trailblazers use a harder rubber compound are usually get a few more miles than a Mudking. The tread is exactly the same.

Thats not a bad thing is it? Just think, if you just turned 16 on wednesday and are on a tight budget, would you buy them or save up for boggers? This is a play truck.

Like STG said, they are just like mudkings.

From what I've seen, I like mudkings. I'd take them way before a buckshot, and at that price, you can't go wrong.
Get them, burn the hell out of them, treat them like *****, and latter, when there isn't much left, you have either found something better, or saved enough for swampers.

Mudkings or trailblazers arent bad mud tires. They arent the best either but the ride pretty good and you get decent miles out of them. Not a bad deal at all.

2 votes yes from me and MBB

a kid at school had thoose on his full size dodge truck, and they were great offroad... Till he decided to run on the interstate with them. They were pretty low on tread anyways, but they split right down the center between the lugs. He almost flipped it, but somehow managed to keep it rusty side down...

In the tires defence, again, they were low on tread, and he drives like an idiot, but they were reguls just like that...

Take it how you want, just thought I should mention it

don't have any experience with them, but 100 dollars (or less) for 4 35 inch mud tires is a pretty good deal. just make sure they don't have any cracks/dryrot and run them until they wear out or you find something else.

I believe they charge $1.75 a valve stem(I wouldn't go that way, you can buy a 4 pack in the store for $2).
The mount usually cost $2.50.
Balance is $5
Lifetime balance is $7.50

I don't like them, they barely know what they are doing, and do a half *** job, but at $30 for a LIFETIME balance, I couldn't go wrong.
I like to balance and rotate my tires often, so I go there about every 4K miles and stay and just make sure they do what I want them to do.

Thing is to go on a day when you think noone else will.
Friday or Saturday at noon isn't a good time.

Mid week, early early morning is usually good.

i traded a set of 36" gumbo mudders for a set of 33" regul's and $100 (meaning i got the $100) the 36's were pretty close to shot and i didn't dare peel em off the rims, so i figured i'd get rid of em.
