I got my new tires....

I went with the 39.5x16.5x15 Pit Bull Rockers. I went through www.4x4groupbuy.com, and they were awesome to deal with! I ordered my tires on Tuesday, and I had them in my possession by Friday.

Ya, I didn't like the width, 16.5 inches, but its all good! For that size to only weigh 87 lbs is why I got them. Pit Bull is a new tire and I hope that they are going to work out!

I ran 35x15.5-15 TSL's on mine before I ever rebuilt, adn I loved it. Philosophy was that more tire on the ground would offer more traction. Only issues I ever had was slinging shit inside the cab, but they all do that. I would have run 15.5's on the ones I have now if they had made them. This is why I'm curious as to how these work out for you.

You'll like em. I just got some 39.5" on 17's when I did my one ton swap on my TJ. We are going to Clayton next weekend and that should give them a good test. I've only had them out once so far and I thought they did real good especially considering I didn't air down like I normally would.

No won't be at Cass not really into big events and I have to work anyway. We will be in Clayton next weekend too. Cass is where I broke mine in the first of September. You'll be pleased but air them way down.

The wedding was good, a week in Cancun was even better. Time to get ready for Turkey Day wheeling now.

Well we just got back from Clayton and I ran 8 psi the first day and dropped to 6 psi for day 2 and 3 and they hooked up much better and started flexing better also.

I ran 6 psi and it hooked up well so no need to me to go lower. I only winched once all weekend and that was because I got hung up between a rock and hard place (another rock) and had to winch forward about 2 ft. and was off again.

Shain...what did you do with your old tires??? Let me know, I need a spare or 2. If you haven't sold them, maybe we could work out a deal.

Right now its been requested by my brother that I hold on to them for him. He might use them, but I'll see what he thinks.
