Yep that is one of the reasons i went wiht them. They also have a 3 ply sidewall comapred to the TOYO's 2 ply.
Also Americas/Discount Tires stocks them unlike the TOYO's which are special order and since Les Schwabb pretty much gets priority on them it kind of made my choice a bit easier.

 

I've got a set on my 05 Scab. The best hands down. But here's a big question. I have 275/65R18's and want to move up to a larger size without rubbing too much. I know the 35x12.50R18 are a bit too much. What are the suggestions for filling up the wheel wells a little better?

 

I've had my for about 3 weeks now and love them. Handle great, pretty quiet for a M/T, high load range, identical tread pattern to the Toyo, and weighs in about 12lbs lighter a tire compared to the Toyo. I did plenty of research before I bought mine and I am 200% satisfied

 

I basically agree with everyone who's posted. I ran them on a work truck and loved them, though I was not overly impressed with mileage, about 30,000. We were very hard on them, though, so no real regrets there. I do remember them being louder than my current Toyo M/T tires, and they were about $50 more per tire than my Toyos for my truck. I still think you will be satisfied. I'd buy them if they were cheaper than the Toyos for my application, though it would have to be enough to justify the slight noise differential because they ride and handle about the same.

Enjoy them.

 

Looks like 275/70R18 is the only 18 before you get to 12" wide.

mikeltn, you got any more pics of your tires? That's the size i'm looking at getting for my truck and i'd like to see some more pics if you got em. Thanks.

 

I've had a set of 275/65/18 for 6 months now. I love the way they look, lots of compliments. Great in mud and snow, not too noisy for an MT. I would definately recommend them. I'm looking into getting a bigger set for summer. Pics in my gallery.
