Getting it done

I purchased the 33's and I love them. They do ride a little rough, but small price to pay, for going where I want and my buddies with BFG's;Swampers; and who knows what else haven't had close to the traction I have had. As far as I know, most of them will be buying these tires when they buy tires again.

When did they start offering that size? I want them in a 35".

Why not? It's the most agressive tread pattern in a non wheeling specific tire out there.

They do ride rough, but are a higher load rating, and that's why. They are not really that loud on the road either.

Not sure I understand that comment about aggressive tread pattern or how an MT designated tire is "non wheeling specific"? This tire is yet another knockoff of the MT/R, and is a generic "MT", which today really means "RT" because the MT/R market is a rock crawling market, not a gumbo mud market.

Nothing new here but probably a budget conscious price and an assumption that paying less doesn't mean you are somewhere getting less compared to other new entrants like Toyo.

What I mean is the tire is not designed specifically for wheeling. It's main purpose is a work truck tire. But, it is super agressive with lots of open tread space. Of the big tire manufacturers today, it is the most swamper'esque' offering.
