Im not sure, I haven't had much time to decide. They are wearing excellent for how aggressive of a tread they are.

If thats the case, just get the Nitto TGs. They work very well offroad for a all terrain tire.

fordboy,
look into these super swamper STS radial, they have a smooth ride a unique looks, they are quiet, and probably one of the best sand tires made. Their tread life is a little short, but they are cool. you can get a 35x12.5x17 for $220


If all you want is cheap then look into Maxxis tires, buckshot mudder and bighorn, they are dirt cheap and perform well

**i AM considering those tires though, since im in the sand so much

My friend had a set of those Creepy Crawlers in 35's. They did very well in the mud but only lasted about 15k.

Whats wrong with the BFG MT's? Although I dont have much experience with Nitto TG's or MG's, but I beleive the BFG's wear the best.

i stuck with the 4" rancho lift, and i went with a different rim, i forgot what kind they were, but we were on a timeline, and that was 1 of the 4 rims they had, and they are really nice, they kinda look like the ones thumper has, i got them in 18" x 9.5". As for the tires...... the only tires they had for that size rim was the bfg a/t tires (33x12.5 R18) so.... thats what im gettin. i wish i had more options, but it is going to look great, and i will post a pic after christmas, i think it is being installed right now (parents wont tell me since its for christmas, they want to suprise me). after the bfg`s wear down, ill have enough of my own money to get the swampers or nittos!

thanks for all of your posts!!!

Fordboy, you should be happy with that setup, BFG makes an awsome tiree. I have used the A/T for several yeaars, and know many people with them. They are great for sand and street. They may not look as cool as some of the other tires but they will last! Lets see some pics!
