    Get out more is funny... Right now is the first time in 10+ Years I haven't had a rockcrawler.

    Edit: Also:

    Most are running a mud terrain style tire and more than a few have TSLs. I never said they weren't

    Different Tires work Better In different terrains...
    They are a variant from Interco of the TSL. You are getting too nit picky.

      There are several off-brands of the BFG Mud Terrains. Sardis Tire & Wheel sells one of them for very reasonable.

        My truck was a weekend hauling lumber/chores/river truck. It got about 6-8 mpg and was intended to get me to the river and back.
        This is my daily driver. The truck wont see much off roading outside of going to the range and 4wheeling/atv.

          I have the BFG's and like them though I kinda wish I had gone with a slightly more aggressive tread.

          What wheels are those? And i agree, wide wheels and 33/12.5 look ghey. ThIs is prolly why i didnt think the wheel tire combo didnt quite click for me. Chili, u thinkin these are 10 wide wheels i have? Regardless, there getting replaced. Just need to know a good width to go with

            I would suggest a knock off mud terrain. They are much better than any "all terrain" tire, with the one exception being heavy sand. If you are doing beach excursions, then AT tires have better flotation properties in sand. The mud terrains are designed to dig through the mud and get to a base for traction.

            Those look like Cragar Soft Black 8's:

              Yes, I think the wheels you have are 10" based on how they make that tire look. My wheels are just cheap steelies from Discount Tire. I think they are branded as Unique wheels - 15x8's. At $55 a wheel they were the best price I could find.

              If he stays with a 12.5" wide tire even mud terrains should be okay on sand as long as he airs way down. Close on the wheels, they are basically the same as the Soft 8's.. Hell, they're probably made by the same company. I think I said earlier, I wish I would have stuck with a Mud terrain, or at least a more aggressive AT, but these were probably the better choice since most of my driving is on pavement also.

                    Did you miss the part about this being his daily driver? If you care anything about road noise, fuel mileage, or how long they will last... do not get mud terrains.

                      DFWM ballers don't care about disposable tires.

                                I was thinking about those but I am not going for the "hood" look.
