Yeahp, got some Treadwrights...

...in a real man size, 235-75-r15...

They are on BFG AT KO sidewalls, with what looks like the old Goodyear wrangler AT tread from like the 90's. Very square profile.

Balanced pretty good, and they appear larger than my spare tire which is also a 235-75...

We'll see how they hold up to the limestone, lava rock & shale around here... Pics coming soon.

Yeah, this is a mutant turd thread started from another thread I replied to. Sue me. But I gotta get the word out, these tires are pretty cool.

They have the extra rubber around the rim, pretty rad...
You can get pretty much whatever sidewalls you want as long as you can wait for Treadwright to get them in stock. Pretty cool. Pics are coming, una segundo...

After shipping, mounting & balancing, I have less than 300 in my tires. They all balanced well without too much weight, and they are relatively quiet at 65.

I've had mine on for about a week now and am very happy. I got the 31x10.5 and mine too are quite a bit taller than my old ones. The even rub a bit at full squish...got me some Bridgestone Revo sidewalls.

Spread the TreadWright love, these tires are rad. SK, that place is flat. & cold. I am familiar with north-central MB, around FlinFlon...

I`ve got nearly 1,000 miles on these tires, and have had the chance to run them on some chunky limestone gravel roads, some snow, mud & highway miles. No complaints, they ride smooth & I cannot find any chipping from 60+ miles on really sharp gravel-rock roads...

More to follow.
