Buddy has a set of the 34's on his XJ great tire and seem to be wearing pretty well. He has 10K on them now and they still look new.

well found a guy selling 2 brand new 31-10.5r15 trxus m/t's for $250 witch is a great deal but they where a little small (if anyone is intrested he is posting on the chicago craigslist or i can give you his e-mail) for my mud truck i want 33", witch i found a set of 3 trxus m/t's 33-12.5r15, bald in the center but still have 6-7/32 on the outter lug witch for the right price i would be willing to try out wheeling, he was asking $150 i offerd $50 he simply replied no thanks and didn't even counter, do u think i insulted him with my offer i though it was a fair price or at least a place to start.

We've had a few sets of those come into my work, all of them were cupped or out of round. A couple of the customers were switching to BFG km2 M/T's because they didn't like them

Cupping means bad alignment or over/underinflation I have yet to see a tire just cup on its own...

i stumbled on a set of 3 for free when i was looking for a fullsize spare. a buddie had them and just gave them to me 37x12.5r15. two of them ended up on the front of my truck when the irok's were just too far gone to run anymore. they pull very well and seem to bite just as well as the 37x14x15 irok bias i was running on the rear (the rears were lacking some tread depth however). I have been doing alot of reasearch on them since I am now thinking of ordering a new set of them for the explore. i was VERY pleased at how well they worked even with less than 1/2 tread. what my major concern is, is that the 4th tire (which i did recieve) has a severe blister on the sidewall and I have came across a couple of stories of others hearing about this happening. still have yet to incounter anyone that has had this happen to THEM directly. the tires i recieved were said to have lived a hard life so i could pass this off as damage due to rigourous use. however i'm gonna be really mad if I DO order these tires at 400$ a pop and have one fail in a short period of time. however like i said from my experience they pull very hard,clear very well, i didnt balance and had no nasty vibration and they were quiet on the road, they also handle 10x better than the fat bias irok's onroad. i may end up with the irok's just cuz i LOVED them when they had more life on em.
