How are these tires on-road? I read that they are not good but no detail as to why.

They certainly look bad a$$.

i've been very happy with mine, on and off road. the only compliant i've heard on road is the noise, but it's never bothered me. 10,000 miles and wearing very well. i've never had another mud terrain on the jeep so i can't really compare, but i've been pleased.

I have no complaints. I drive at least 50 miles a day. Just took a 4+ hour road trip last weekend and it was a nice ride.

thats going to be a VERY NICE set up!!
Did you get an ETA on the Sidebiters? I was told the earliest you could get them was the middle to end of summer. That info came from the tec supervisor at MT.

I'm now replacing my 35/18 Nitto MG's at 49K. I can easily get another 3-5 thousand miles out of them. Run them at 28 psi, rotate at every other oil change at you'll do as well as I did.

Next week's replacements will be maintained as such and I'll incorporate the spare into the rotations to get more mileage out of them...!
