Haven't hauled anything yet but they are E load rated. The mud was from previous tires so prolly be a lot worse when these new ones see mud lol!!! Just don't like the way mud flaps look.

A lot quieter than I figured considering the tread on them. To tell you the truth I dont notice a difference between these and the old firestone destination a/t's I had before, not noisy at all.

I'm in the market for some new tires, so I'm glad this came up.
I'm not looking into if a certain size will fit, as many threads have already answered that question. I'm looking into quality of tires. I am not happy with the stock tires that came with my truck. BFGoodrich Rugged Trail T/A's on 18's. They have 21,000Kms on them and about 1/8" heavy of tread left. The rear is worse than the front, but not by much at all.

I expected atleast 40,000kms out of them. But sadly I was mistaken. So I would love to know how well the tires perform and last.
They look great too.

Haven't changed my info on there yet first wanted those m/t atz's then saw these tires in same size at local shop for decent price well still expensive but better than i've found anywhere else $315/tire.

Joshn, I'll let ya know how they do after a while.
