Let's see some more pics if anyone's got them.

Does anyone know if these Rocker radials are stronger than KM2s as far as sidewall strength and puncture resistance goes?

John, how wide are those 37s you got? I know the Rocker radials won't have the sidewalls that the bias Rockers have, but how strong are they compared to whatever else you've tried? I'm looking for a radial that I don't have to worry so much about puncturing on a trail (if that even exists).

my 37's are 12.50 wide but they are wider than my buddies 39.5x13.50 Iroks.
The side wall is very thick way thicker than my old Xterrains. I cannot see sidewall strength being an issue on these tires.
Here is the only vid that I have that kinda shows the sidewall geting abused.. the tires were at 25psi on this trip

How stiff is the ride, because I see they are E rated. My D rated DC FC2s don't cushion bumps on the road very well. Does the tread make those softer when you hit bumps and little potholes?

I got these on my radar as well....John were did you pick these PitBulls up??

Will a 17x8 rim work on the Pitbull rocker 35x12.50 tires??
Noticed the true measure is 35.25x13 and they recommend a 10" rim...so just curious. Anybody know costs/tire? How is the road noise on these tires say compared to other popular M/T's????

Good questions, I need to know too. I got the same size rims and can't find these tires anywhere.
