AWESOME!!!! My set is waiting for me at tire shop. You will be happy with those tires. They are tough and heavy but go through everything. The tire shop can weight balance them. They are constructed well and a good shop shouldn't have to rely on balance beads. Can't wait to see you get Em installed.

Did I mention that due to a computer glitch each tire was only $168. The guy at the tire shop said they last forever and are unstoppable on his Ferd F250

That's an awesome price. I have 73k km on mine and there is easily another 15k as a summer tread. But I don't want to wear Em that far. The tires are a 10 ply even though d rated.

Yea it is a hell of a deal, I think they were dragging their feet to try and get me to back out of the deal.

They are studdable which makes them fantastic all winter. Good on ice. Toyos are not. I had Toyo at2 extremes on before and these are better on ice when studded. These are a slightly softer compound as well. In powder snow the toyos would be on par but when it gets hard packed and solid these are better. Deep snow I've pushed with my bumper and these keep on pushing.

These have almost 73,000km on them. Nearly half their life has been on gravel. They are between 7/32 at the worst and 9/32 overall tread. That's 30% left starting at 21/32. They went through last winter at 12/32 and no issues.

That makes me feel even better about my purchase (not that getting each tire for 168 wasnt enough) since I average about 7k miles a year. These should last me a good long while. I have heard some fantastic reviews of them in the mud too. I am wondering about the sand though.

Those are some good reviews. I can't wait to get these mounted. I am halfway contemplating mounting them with the stock control arms, I wonder how bad they will rub.

I basically flipped a coin between these and the Yokos I have now. Sort of wishing I went with these now and would if I could sell the ones i have now. O well. In time I suppose... :)

I was really considering your yokos but I really like the feeling of confidence that a mud terrain provides.

I will say these Yokos have shocked me on how they do in the slop and crawling hills, but I do want to see how the Dynapros do also. Can't wait to hear what you think about them.

I rolled them out an put next to current tires and snapped couple side pics. Going to be a tight fit lol. Hopefully I will order the arms by the end of the month.

Just take the plunge and install them. I ran with stock arms on my pw and this one. They will fit much differently once installed and inflated

I'm worried about not being able to turn at all with the stock arms. Realistically how much clearance is gained?

You will be able to turn just not complete lock. And if you are upgrading from the 33s then 2" at min ground clearance to your axle pumpkin. It's noticeable.
