Not a fan of their sound or fast wear but the mud grappler just have an awesome look and functional use. Very nice combo man

Trimming?

When you say there was tons of trimming involved what do you mean by that? because I have the same truck with a leveling kit and I am looking at getting 35" tires with after market wheels. inform me on the trimming process? is it a pain? would I be better off going with the 33"s

I run 34" tires on my Lariat wheels and there's no rubbing at all with my levelling kit.

hey... it works. Truck looks great BTW! Those tires have some pretty awesome performance in mud from what I've seen in person. They can find grip in almost anything.

Yeah i used to run 37 mud grapplers and they were even louder than my 35s i have right now and i loved it.. Really does sound like an airplane going down the road when you let off the gas and just roll. They perform so darn well in the mud that i have not gotten stuck yet. They saved my butt alot. You will like em alot.. Just make sure you rotate them. I do mine every oil changed at about 3k and i also get em balanced just to get longer tread out of em.





As She sits now at 11" Of lift waiting for my 37s from home


I also have videos on youtube.com if you search mhockey9090 and all my profile videos will come up i got like 2 of my truck muddin.
