the sidewall says BFG krawler, but that's very obviously not what they are. probably some one-off's that BFG made specifically for xenon.

So I wouldn't get a lot of miles out of them - assuming I knew anything about cutting tread.

For a cut thread the 4 in the picture look pretty uniform.

Any ideas where to get somehting like this in a 33 - 35" size?

you can't buy red label krawlers unless you're a sponsored competitor.

They are available to the public. They are listed on Tire Rack and several online tire retailers.
