What do you think of these wheels?

[BIRDMAN]

Mine are 20" 35s.

yeah, are the tires 35 x 12.50 or...what's their metric sizing?

Snapped these pictures on the way out the door this morning. Hope they help. Pretty dirty from snow/road grime.

thanks man

I actually really like those too. Might have just changed my mind from grabbers to those.

Ugly. Why not the same wheels on your old cherokee?

If i was sure, I wouldn't have asked. I hate them. Thanks Jules. Now it's down to the Bully's or the Monsters.

Can't go wrong with either one........

Well here are a few shots of the MT/R's With Kevlar. Just got them on yesterday ; as you will see I did not waste anytime test driveing them .

I'm running 35" MT/R's with Kevlar on my 350 and I have to say I'm VERY IMPRESSED. They have never left my stuck, always gotten me out without a problem and there are a couple Raptor owners out there who are thankful for them too ......but most of all there is over 50% tread left I have over 25K miles on them, of course that also has to do with me being **** about rotating them at every oil change......I plan on bumping up to 37's when I burn through these

Thanks for the pictures. I really like that tire... and rim... you happy wit em>??

I am VERY happy with the rim's . 9000 miles on them and they still look like new .

As an example ; you can see how dirty the tires are from some light trail use and about 20 miles of dirt roads after the MT/R's had been put on and they still look clean .
First impressions on the Tires.
• I was really surprised just how quiet they are on Concrete or Tar. This is at all speeds. Will have to see if they stay this quiet after a few thousand miles.
• Well behaved on the street as well , meaning no surprises on handling . Obviously not as sticky as the BFG's.
• Rolling resistance is up a little . From a stand still you can feel the lugs on these tires as you start to roll.
• BEST thing so far : No ******* rocks being throw all over hell . For any of you guys who have rolled the stockers down dirt roads you know what I am talking about . With the BFG's it sound like you were hitting the underneath of the truck , running boards and wheel wells with a scatter gun . With these MT/R's hardly anything . This is not that big of surprise when you look at the outside tread pattern . How big of difference ? Well I may my mud flaps off today , that's how big.
• I seen a few guys mention running these in a 35 . I looked hard at doing this , but decided against it . The load rating is not as high as the 315's. far lower PSI with lower load rating and shallower tread with the 35's , they are cheaper buy about $50 a skin. The back sidewall was a bit of a son of a bitch to find. Finally called Goodyear direct . NTB. FORD, Discount tire , Sears all said they could not get it and a few tried telling me this tire was discontinued . Well that is BS. According to the Goodyear rep I spoke to the 315BSW is a relatively new offering for them. I also am only on the middle perch and with my offset and back space I couldn't afford the additional .2" in Diameter.
• I am stoked that I pulled the trigger on these , as I was not to confident on how the stockers were going to do in the snow. I have an Upcoming hunting trip and I will be putting about 2000 miles on my truck over the next couple weeks . I will post an update if anybody is interested.

Bird I looked at the Coopers you mentioned and had looked at the new Duratrack as well Hankook DynaPro MT that just won a MTR tire shoot out , the Goodyear MTR's with Kevlar came in 2nd . Good luck with sorting through all this shit , as I am just happy to have it done as I was driving my self nuts trying to pick out the tire I wanted to run. Hope this hlps and good luck.
