Thunderer Trac Grip M/T 285/75/r16

I am running Pirrelli Scorpion 285x70x17. Love mud tires.

 

Looks good like the rim's and bumper

 

I was about to pull the trigger on these on Amazon for my size tire (31/10.5R15) because they were $132 each, but they sold out in that size. Now it's down to the Thunder Tracs, Milestar Pategonia MT, or the more boring (but probably longer lasting) Toyo Open Country A/T. They all cost about the same, $120ish per tire.

 

@NUKTACO how are you liking the tires sir? Looking at them in 265 75 16 E for my 2.7. Price is good on them.

 

I like them alot but they have their downfalls.
Not the greatest on fuel economy. im still playing with PSI to get better MPG. Like others have said they are not great in standing water likes to hydroplane some. i live in Seattle so it happens a bit moore.the side walls are a bit stiffer so you feal the road a bit Moore. would I buy them again yes for the price I can live with them and I'm hoping to get about 30000 to 50000 miles out of them hope this helps.

 

Thanks, considering them in 265 75 16 for my 2.7 4 cyl... $472 shipped right now.

 

That price is hard to beat. I have put 1500 miles on mine so far.

 

truck is already underpowered.. have 265 75 16 wildpeaks now and theyve been great. i do a lot of highway travel for work but looking to wheel more trails this summer. Been hesitant to make the move to 10 plys.. but may pull the trigger.

 

I do a lot of freeway driving and it not to bad
And I am hoping to do the same.

 

I'm think I might regear to help with power but I'm lucky I got the manual transmission.

 

@NUKTACO well i pulled the trigger and ordered them, hope I'm happy with them !

 

Well the good thing is if you don't like them it is only $400 and not $1200.

So what do you think of them up close and personal.

 

How have the tires been holding up? So it looks like with the stock wheels you had no rubbing issues with the 285/75R16? I've been thinking about pickup a set to use as my offroad beater tires.

 

so I have 1.25 spidertrax spacers and a CMC. the tires so far are doing great I have about 1500 miles on them so far the sound is not to bad for a MT I have not had the droning that some guys talk about.

 

What size did you decide to get?

 

stuck with the 265/75/16.

 

have had them on for a few weeks now, along with a full sizer spare. They look great and I have recieved some compliments from people. I had a steel skid plate put on the same day as the tires, so a pretty significant increase in weight across the board. The tires ride great, my guys said they were a bit tough to balance and took a good amount of weights though. Truck runs and rides great. Just dont think i can add any more weight or bigger tires, im about maxed out on my 4cyl now lol. might need a regear someday because i do eventually want to add steel bumpers.

 

You should also look at Ironman All Country M/T. They are understated, look a lot like BFG KM2's and the price is right there with your budget.
