Killer tires man. That's some crazy fast ship time. If I can't find a good local dealer to order my tires from then they are my next bet. After hearing everything you just said they are my #1 bet for a tire company.

I'll keep that site in mind for the future. The place I ordered from lost my order so it took 2 weeks

From the first picture I thought they were BFG Muds at first. Those Kumhos look good.

does this mean once the wheels come in youll need to take them to a tire shop to get them mounted on the wheels?

I often considered ordering from tirerack.com or other online stores, but couldn't justify the extra lifelong cost of rotate/balance from a separate store. I got my cheap 31x10.50 Super Sport HT mudders (I think they're made by Kelly) from Wal-Mart with lifetime rotate/balance & road hazard warranty for $98 per tire. I got 43,000 miles out of them and never had the first problem.

my $.02..
