Pretty much because after that, comes gear upgrades and/or maybe new axles lol

Nothing wrong with being financially responsible / save for a rainy day, etc. but at the same time, you only live once so you might as well enjoy it.

I don't think your statement is true . If a tire is directional it will state it on the sidewall (all I have owned have) otherwise they are non-directional. There maybe a few AT's that are directional but it would only be a few as many OWL tires can be turned in to run black wall out. Mudders I can see being a different story.

His statement may in fact be true.
He's referring to the type of tire pictured in post #3, which is what this thread is about.

I concur with what you are saying if its about those specific tires which is most likely the case, I read it as just a bit more of a generic statement thus my question mark.

They are fake beadlockers but a good looking wheel nonetheless.....

Yes they are fake bead locks. Actually have had multiple people ask that same question already when I'm out and about.
