I live in Fort Smith, Arkansas and there's a place I've been dealing with for 10 years on wheels/tires and I have 6 vehicals and I have wheels/tires on each one and 3 sets on one ride. I can get pretty good discounts on things plus free tires for my trailers. I can get the 17in Dynapros for $235 in a 35/12.50.

I found them at my local tire shop in Missouri for $160 for the 295/75/R16 (33.6") and for $171 in the 315/75/R16 (35"). They told me they had a good distributor for that particular tire.

My wheels and tires are here(35/12.50/r15) with 3.75bs on wheels and I need to get them on tomorrow but no lift yet. I am trading my stock 16 steel wheels for these because of what they are giving me for them. I can take a few more days but I still haven't heard on my lift yet. What should I do? I have my gears and wheels/tires, is there anyway I can get this thing home? I know that with no lift it will rub but will it so much that it wont drive very far it looks to me that it would hit the bumper when I turn but my new bumper comes off. Any help would be greatly appreciated but I can't wait for this lift any longer if its to risky I may be able to bum a ride up there and get the wheels but I'm not sure I can.

Maybe if they are on a big v-8 or something like that maybe they would but not on my 202 horsey v-6.


Anyone like another m/t tire better? let me know I'll consider any tire and I'm kinda new to these tires. I kinda got out of 4x4's for about 6 years or so.

No I have the TERRA CRAPPLERS on my Ford and I have the same opinion....It feels like I am on ice with no self cleaning. Then again they not suppose to be M/T's

Check out the Interco Trxus MT. You'll like them. Good grip, siped, and a strong side wall. Not real noisy either.

Yea, there not M/T's and at the time I wanted something quiet that got alot of miles and thats pretty much out of M/T territory. I had a buddy with me when I got the Terras and he kept on and on about them and said they cleaned out really good...wrong! I told him after the first time I got in the mud and got stuck that I hated the way the tires just caked up and that he had it comming the next time I saw him...LOL...well not really, he was willing to drive 45 miles to pull me out.

Yeah those are pretty much the EXACT same resons I got mine. I had interco trxss M/T and I cupped them bad due to my own stupidity and I could not get them to stop shaking my truck apart. Stupid me they where great tires
