new rubber!!!!

got them put on yeaterday. there 33x12.50 maxxis buckshot mudders. on 15x8s. i figured they would rub with just my bj spacers but believe me or not, they dont rub at all. my little 22re does okay with them on stock gears. the only big difference i can tell is pulling out on hills. and gettin g up to speed. but i dont plan on racing or nothin with it. im goin wheelin this weekend so i can see how it does off road. heres the pics..

before


after

They perform well in mud and trail situations. I never had them on rocks but I never had a grip issue with them. I had a set on my wrangler and i couldnt complain about them. They are a little loud at times but lets face it you bought a mud tire. LOOKIN GOOD

Never had em on a DD where I paid close mileage attention. I'd guess 30k?, But I'm the type that swaps this to that truck and over to the other. All I know is they did well and I was never p.o.ed cause they shredded a lug or were worn out before I knew it. Had em on a 78 fj40, 79 f150, 72 cj5, and a 73 Scout. Only one set was bought new and they had lots of life left when I totaled the Scout.

I have a set on my '01 frontier and they have 25000 on them with about 5-7 thousand left and my truck is alot heavier than yours. Just make sure you rotate balance and keep up with alignments and they will last you good.

Do you mind me asking how much you paid Yoder? That is a good looking tread. I have nothing but good things about them.

i found mine close for cheap so i took it and i love them! and yeah i have stock 4.10s. i've taken it on 1 serious run, tellico. and it did great. no complaints what so ever. tires did fine in the muddy spot there when it rained and did awesome on rocks and the gearing never gave me a problem. you're set bro

You'll need about eight cans of Krylon Ultra Flat Black Camo paint, and crapload of 400-600 grit sandpaper.. and some denatured alcohol.. Get to it! don't forget the door jams and save the newspapers for a while... and the blue masking tape is the shizz...

Also, those 33's probably suck big nut on the highway.. Mine I have to stay in 4th gear with my 22R, don't bother me none, just don't forget when your speedo says 60, your really doing 70, and when your doing 70, your doing 86mph... atleast thats what the cop told me.. I'm gettin some 5.29's to make up for the gutlessness..
