loudest mud tire

well my tires are nearly done [5,000 miles left] and i'm looking for new tires, my truck is getting lifted another 2.5"'s to give me 12.5"'s of lift and i'm looking at the pitbull growler-39.5x16.5x20, 41x14.50x20 irok, which is louder between the two ? i'm leaning towards the iroks because 41" is gonna be badass but i wanna know how loud they are because louder the better imo i love the humming sound.

btw i posted about me havin the mud grapplers, i sold them becuase i didn't wanna shell out another 1400 for 22's.

How are you getting another 2-1/2" out of it? I'd go with the Iroks!

I don't think the 41s will fit without rubbing pretty bad. .

Plus I don't think the DLs have that much adjustability. I only think they can be adjusted for 2.5-3" of lift.

40s will fit with 12" of lift.

There are tons of tires out there that are 40x15.50x20s. I can think of the Nitto Mud Grapplers, Toyo Open Country M/Ts, and a bunch of other tires.

The Nitto website doesn't even list all of their tire sizes so you just need to call and find out.

What about 39.5 Iroks? I think Kuhmo might make their new tire in that size too.

grapplers no longer come in a 40, they have been discontined. there are places you can find them but you wont be able to again. they also got rid of all the 22" grapplers.

just givng you a heads up.

no, i didnt ask biggest grappler is now the one on your truck. what is listed on nitto is all that is made now.

all4ford i believe is the guy with pitbulls. I have recently become a dealer for them and i would be easy. they are a bias ply tire. could be a real hassle with our heat in s fl.
