morning Phil... http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

i have 3 friends that run them on a YJ, TJ, and range rover. for trail riding (GW national forest, monongahela NF) and a few other local spots they have said good things. plus the cost i figured what the hell. under 200 per tire shipped.

will let you know. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

who the hell knows. live and learn. at least tires arent an "etched in stone" type of mod. worst case scenario you switch them http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gifOriginally posted by PhilD:
I'll be interested to know how you get along with them. I haven't tried them myself, so only repeating what I've been told, which may well be wrong.

Looks like a good deal....im not an offroad expert but i ran the procomp extreme A/T's at Tellico and had no problems besides loosing traction at one point. What i didnt realize was my tire pressure guage read inaccurately and while i thought i was at 25psi i was actually at 45psi. Results couldve been different had i aired down(properly).

That's one inaccurate gauge. Good thing you didn't air up until it read 50 psi or you would have been at 90 psi and blown them like a ballon.

guess we will see. the tread didnt look much different from bfg mts and they were 400 bucks less. i have a short commute (11 miles each way) so hopefully wont be too bad.

I appreciate everyones concern though http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gifOriginally posted by MovinH2:
