Anybody running the Big-O MT? A friend of mine works there and can get them cheap but not cheap enough to have to replace them every 20k miles. He also thinks they are made by Continental. Any input is appreciated. Thanks!

I ran their XTs in 315/75/16 on my 97 Ram 1500 and got 40k out of them and they that bought them put another 10k on 'em. They were really shot at the end though.
I liked the XTs better than the MTs. They performed identical to the BFG MTs on my friends identical truck (same year, engine, body, suspension, gears, etc). Yeah I know, BFGs are not much to compare to, but it is a reference that people know.
I had them in the Sierras, TruckHaven/Ocotillo Wells and the local OHV parks. The only thing about them is the shoulder lugs are pretty tight and getting a bite climbing muddy ruts is tough at times.
Can't beat their warranty though, as long as the tire is legal, it will be repaired or replaced at no cost. None of that pro-rated crap.
When my Swampers are done and I can affford it, I will be getting some more XTs for street use and TSLs on new wheels for wheeling.

What is their warranty policy? Don't they replace them for any problems?
