Lol I did like this tire but I disagree about winter performance (without studs) the lack of sipes makes them pretty scary but their tough as hell and they will keep you pushing forward as long as your on the skinny pedal.

I've heard guys sipe the Center two lugs and have good winter performance. I did a partial winter on non studded and non siped tires. Not recommended. On par with nitto trail grapplers. Studded they are awesome. In snow though they are unstoppable. Push snow with the bumper and keep going. Look at this tread! No mud terrain is really meant for the ice up north. But some idiots keep running them

Damn!!! Looks good. Get them balanced well? Mine cruise up to 90mph no issues. Not that I do that regularly. But it's happened by accident. How they working so far for you

Thanks. I really like them. The guys at discount tire were really skeptical but then really liking the look once they were on. Not sure on balancing, seems to be a lot of weights on one of them. I've only really checked one though. I've only gotten up to 60mph so far an no discernable difference, only slight humm.

Looking good!

Looks like ya need to get the flares black again.

[2011TXPowerWagon]

I know. It looks really faded with new shoes lol

[nts007]

Fit the wheel wells perfectly. Like they were meant to be there. I love the fact that 37's not only balance well but actually make a serious difference off road. did you notice the extra inch and some in height getting in?

[2011TXPowerWagon]

Yes leaving the tire shop my youngest boy went to jump on the step as he always did an totally missed an my older son had to help him lol. I completely agree the 37's should be there from factory.

[Will]

Looks great!

When I had mine installed, a young cat at the tire shop said "I hate to tell you but those tires are not going to fit this truck." A little while later he was glad he didn't bet money on it.

As for the flares being faded. As far as I know, there's nothing you can do about it other than painting them or something similar. No amount of restoring application will work.

[nts007]

Just get her dirty! How you guys keep a truck clean like that is beyond me.

Only time mine gets a bath is when it rains....

Ok so after couple weeks of driving with the new tires I have noticed a couple things. A) these tires make my truck look AWESOME!!!! B) they ride great up to 90mph with the only exception being from about 52mph-60mph. In that range a pretty good shake appears. But once past 60 it goes right away. I am not sure what it could be. C) I do have some rubbing, not any where near as bad as i thought. I did have to use Will's trick and ziptie the fender liner back a little bit to make a little more clearance.

I have not had the chance to try them out in mud or flexing. I have been swamped with starting a new job. I look forward to spending more money on this truck now that i have a decent paying job.

on a side note we got about 6" of rain last night and it is still raining today, so hopefully i can find a chance to find some mud

[Colibri]

That looks great man, nice truck!

It's a lug slap and harmonic. I get it too. But only when new. It goes away as the tires wear a bit. I have 2300miles on mine now and it's just starting to dissappear

Why thank you. The 37's really make it look better. They fill out the wheel well so much better.

DAMN!!!!!! 2300 miles!!!!!! thats about how many i put in over a couple months lol not weeks. Thats good to hear that its common and goes away.

[nts007]

Yep oil change time again. I usually can split my driving between a couple vehicles but combined I drive close to 80k miles a year. 130k km per year average between 3 vehicles nominally. 65-80k km a year on this truck alone
