shite gets expensive once you start getting into oversized tires. I was gonna step up to a little wider tire with the 33x12.5 but I couldn't find anything in the size for under $1000. Most were at least a couple hundred north of that.

I wish I still had my '93 Toyota. I loved that truck so much, and it was absolutely impossible to get stuck. I planned on keeping it for a camp truck, but my Dad sold when I left for college

those were some of the best trucks ever made. V6, stick shift, extended cab. We used a couple during the summe, checking cotton. If you have ever checked cotton, it is some of the most toiling shite to put on a truck. They never missed a beat

They're pretty awesome. Very good road manners for a mud tire. Not the best in the mud because they don't have much lateral traction but they do fine on my truck. I have no complaints. My truck eats tires and they are holding up well.

15" rims are where its at. Tires are relatively cheap.

Call HL PITRE in Ville Platte. He gives you a straight up cost. Gets them in Vidrine and puts them on cheaper than the distribution place

For now. As manufacturers are starting to put bigger wheels on trucks the prices of the smaller tires are gonna start climbing. They already have a little. On the bright side, prices of 20's have gone down, but are still pretty damn high
