I bought these last weekend, 34x10.50 LTB for $600 brand new with a nice warranty from 4 wheels parts.
I bought a tire mounter/dismounter from harbor freight for $40 today, actually worked really well, much better than by hand with pry bars. By the time I finished I didn't have time to trim fenders but I put em on one side to see what they'd look like and then just on the rear for a drive to check out my gearing, which actually isn't too bad, much better than when I had 3.45s and 31s, I hardly noticed much difference and 5th is still usable... They really aren't any noisier than my current tires either but then again I only had the rears on. My measurments turned out to be true, only have to trim the forward and rear openings on the front fenders, rears are close but should be fine.
I'm glad I went with 34s, the 33x13.50s were too wide, the 31x11.5s are just too short and these look just right and the price was right too. I will still be using my 31s for normal street use.

It just needs the forward and rear of the opening trimmed on the front, the rears look fine.
