Just bought a set of 5 of these beauties! I love the triple tread construction, nothing ever stays caught up in the treads ever. Plus when the snow is heavy it's kinda cool to watch the rooster tail of debris coming off the back end tof the truck, it's gotta be at least 8 feet high!! I thought that they would be noisy but they seem pretty mild when on the highway.

:clapping:

Where did you buy it and how much ? im in the market for new tires as well.

THEM ARE TIGHT :clapping:

Do they come in non white lettering?

Yes, turn them black side out!

I picked up these tires at my local 4X4 shop here in Calgary:

Here is a link to their store! Great service, very helpful and terrific prices!

Big bonus with the "Mud & Snow" Cepeks is that they are not only a really aggressive looking tire but they already come factory siped in order to grip better on ice. That saves you from having to buy a set of tires and then get them siped for better traction, and you have to agree that the price is pretty damn good! The only reason I'm plugging these guy's is that they give you no BS service, unlike some dealerships I know.

For those of us driving in winter conditions have a look at this product for your windshield wipers:

Here is a video of the product at work!

I am having the "Whaminator" installed along with the Canadian Tire "Motomaster Hot Wash" windshield system to help clear the windshiled during adverse driving conditions in all seasons.

Mileage was quoted at being around 50,000 and as for Whaminator and Hotwash system, they can be used year round to keep your windshield clear of debris such as bugs, tree sap, dirt and mud. I'll let you in on a secret, did you know that when you fill (from near empty) your windshield wiper fluid you should add about 1/3 of a bottle of isopropal alcohol (rubbing alcohol - super cheap, about $1.50/bottle or less) to a the resevoir, it helps when you have frost on the windshield and your in a hurry to go, it also gets rid of the bugs in the summer and helps remove dirt and sap also. I've been using it in all of my cars for years and have had zero problems.

Cheers!

They remind me of the PJ dirt grips.

M, Thanks for the tip! Boss, good eye! Here are the PJ's.

Dmitri, got any pix of the Cepecs mounted?

I'll get some posted tomorrow after I give it a quick wash, it's flippin filthy! Nice thing about these is that they don't rub like my BFG's use to along the right side stab bar. Man alive, I really like that slant back!!

Cheers!
