'cause I'm starting to hate my mudders. I'm ready to ditch them for some all-terrains. Anyone have any 33" or 35" (17" rim) AT's you want to trade for a set of 33x12.50-17 Pro Comp MT's?

I would take them off and offer them to the guys next fall you want winter tires. They will be the most in demand then. Now that I live in Sac and don't need tires on my truck i think I will take mine off and sell my tires next fall to someone who needs them for REAL winter driving or mud.

are you wanting to get rid of them due to noise? I went with 1 guy who had MTs and they were loud in the street.

*COTitan* · 01-18-2006, 08:53 PM

no, I just don't need anything but street tires in CA. I really love these tires but I could save a few hundred bucks if I have street tires on. On the highway you don't lose any mileage but in the city you get worse milege because you have to move 75 lbs on each tire. They are a great tire for people who need to drive in winter or mud.

That's one reason. They aren't real loud, but louder than I hoped. And I'm tired of feeling the lugs at low speeds (under 30 mph or so). They have been a really good tire, but after about 10 continuous years of driving on big lug mudders, I'm ready for all-terrains again.

haha, i got a set of rugged trail crappers I'll trade ya.

rcantu · 01-19-2006, 08:04 AM

makes sense that the tire is heavier due to the big treads.

i'm sure you'll get a trade or you can try to sell outright

I have Toyo M/T and they are loud but toleratable. I don't might the noise of the tires but the noise of stock exhause bugged the hell out of me. I bought Zoomers tip and it resolved the stock exhaust noise problem.

Well, I got my AT's and boy are they nice. So smoooootthhh.....and quiet! Bought a set of used 315/70-17's from Aquaholic...thanks again Rob.

I had A/T, sold them then switched to M/T. I currently have M/T but get used to the noise. I am about to buy A/T again from a member here. I couldn't wait to get back to A/T. My M/T worn out so fast. I really LIKE THE LOOK OF M/T.

You guys should try the Schwabby's Mud Terrain SXT, The Cooper S/T, The Mastercraft MT, etc (all the same tire). They are mud'ish terrain and ride pretty smooth on the highway..
