my grown man tires

finally after forever i bit the bullet and bought some real tires for my car, the befores are the old 30x9.50 falken all terrains, and the new ones are 32x11.50 bfg mud terrains on 15x8 steel rims, so stoked on it but now i want gears, and then lockers and it never ends. oh ya and im glad i got mudders when i wont see mud here in CA till like november.

AFTER

Definitely an improvement...

And don't worry about getting muds. I put Iroks and a locker in my truck and it's a 99% street driven DD.

And I'm happy I did too.

This is definitely a situation where tires make the truck! From tame to wild just by replacing the rubber! It's hard to believe the old tires were even 30" - The new BF's look perfect on your rig.

its to show off out crazy cool ifs insane flex lol...

but good choice in tires. i have a set of 33x12.5x15 on my truck. great tires and great wear. they wear very evenly, handle rockcrawling without too much chipping, and last very long for a m/t tire.
