I picked up some Toyo Open Country MTs in the metric 35" flavor. Along with some blingy wheels...

I opted to get the inner balancing beads, and I couldn't be happier. Not one vibration felt up to 80mph. The beads are made for balancing large tires, so no, it's not airsoft beads or BBs.

And I'm sure someone will ask me cost... Tires $350/ea. Wheels $180/ea. I could've gotten the wheels cheaper ($135/ea) via internet and various suppliers, but I opted to spend the extra money at my local tire shop to keep my money local, which I try to do as often as possible.

 

Nice choice. I had Toyo MT's and I can say that they are one the best mud tires out there. They are also reliable in the sand when aired down.

 

Are those mickey thompson classic 2? The black ones?

 

Classic III Black, yes. It's just the new version. Smoother lip on the bead, and different style center cap. And the wheels are actually pretty light. Maybe 10-12lbs? Versus the OE steels I had before that were 30+lbs.

 

i have been running my 33s for a while..i'd estimate around 15k miles and they are still in awesome shape with a ton of tread. wheeled a few times and beat on them with no ill effects.. mine are on raceline rockcrushers..only down side of the toyos is heavy..holy crap they are heavy!
