I think he should just go with the 38.5x14.5r16 or 17 TrXus tires... That way I can see what they look like on a 80...
Those will fit with a little sawzall persuasion.
 
Someone told me they were too soft for driving hours and hours to a trail. My shortest drive is 3 hours away and Colorado is 15 hours. Would they hold up to that?
The krawlers come in different compounds. The sticky non dot compound is called red label. The dot compound is called blue label and is what is sold through most tire stores. Blue labels can handle the street. I drove 6 hours on mine to moab. They are pretty wicked in person.

So you do like them on the street? He just said it made his truck feel unstable on the road and the tires weren't really that friendly on the road and that off-road they were good but would go with stt pro if he was buying new tires. He has grapplers now but still said would go stt pro next time. Idk. I haven't had either of them.
 
I mean they are OK on the street. I would say they are a step up in comfort from a bias ply swampers on the street. But there aim is definitely more offroad than on as far as design. I had mine siped to aid wet or snowy weather. They also do flat spot in the morning. They are also fairly loud. In addition they draw a lot of attention which has concerned me security wise hoping they don't get stolen. At low pressures offroad they burped air at the bead at times so I got beadlocks. Hope that helps. They wear really well on the street though. They last a long time.

What is the most important factor to you in a wheeling tire? For me, it is a very solid mud tire with the thickest sidewalls I can find and a reasonably quiet ride. Toyo Mud Tires offer all of that. Consider that my BF Goodrich KM2s weighed 67 lbs new. My Toyos MTs in the same size weighed 76 lbs new. Not cutting a sidewall in the middle of no where is my key measure!

Heavy tire is more likely to break driveline parts, reduces braking distance, and negatively impacts suspension performance.

I say that running 34" Toyo MT's. Every single tire out there is a compromise in some way.
 
Everything is a give and take. I got a good deal on MTR Kevlar and the reviews all seem to be very positive. Guess we will see
 
I have a set of spacers for the rear on order from @NLXTACY . Hoping they keep the tire off the body. I'll post up when they are installed.

Running no spacers in front, currently.
