I've got almost 40000 on mine and still have a ton of tread life to go.  You'll enjoy them.

Copyer!!!!, I just got those 2 weeks ago and they rock!! What size did you get and whats the lift you got on your rig??

Thanks for the props!

They are 235/75/15's mounted on American Racing wheels 15 by 8.  I don't know the back spacing.

I have a Calmini 2" lift and am fully armor plated.

I wrote an article that is on the front page of Zukiworld.  It's called On Higher Ground.  Check it out!

NIce to see another rig in a black coat & armored, for a while there I thought, I'd have to get me a white bow-tie (chevy emblem) and put it on my grill and tell everyone it was dressed for success in a tuxedo.

Definitely made it look more aggresive!  

I really wanted some MT's (for the look), but decided to be a little more real world about it.   :-/

Well at full lock they rub.  Even with the 2" lift.

It must be the width of the wheels.  :-/

Well, I can report that my 16v 5spd LOVES the 235's.  ;D  It is a little slower getting up to highway speed, but will easily hold 70 mph even up hill or with a headwind.  My old Jeep 4 cylinder on 31's would not hold 70 unless the ground was flat and no headwind.

I haven't had them out playing yet. :(  You all will be the first to know when I do!

95bhp makes a difference. With the 8V I could tell the difference when I went to 215/80s. 33x9.5s were a real PITA till I changed the gearing - still not great.

Your turs look nice man! I have the MT's and love them to death. I think i want some swampers for my next tire, if the BFG's ever wear out. Which i doubt they will in the next 10 years lol.

with the rim you are running, what wheel spacing are you getting not back spcing just how much extra they stick out. I am looking at some 15x8 's on a bronco for my kick but I want at least a inch of wheel spacing coming out.
