Treadwrights came in

[Musick17]

I get home from work today and my treadwrights are sitting on my porch. Extremely fast delivery. I ordered them on tuesday and it is only friday. Very reasonable shipping also, Approximately $65 to have 4 tires shipped from South Dakota to Illinois.

These are the 215/85R16 Crawler M/t Treadwright tires. They have 16/32 of tread. Pretty good looking tire if you ask me.

I will be posting here saying what I think about them as I accumulate more miles. I hope the coil spacers and rear blocks are enough to clear these things!

For retreads they are really nice!!! You need some lift there, Bro, lol.
What kind of warranty do they give for the tires? I only bought one set of retreads for my sister's Baja bug I built for her and she had one blow out on her and it almost caused her to flip off an interstate. That was some time back so I know they are better made now then they used to be.

 

[Musick17]

I dont know the warranty on them, havnt read it yet (whoops.)

But i knew i was gonna need some lift. I got 3" coil spacers for up front. and a fellow member is selling me some 2.5" factory rear blocks. Hopefully its enough! Or else I might have to buy a PA 2" body lift *gasp* ohh no

i thought ur truck was the red one on your avatar?

[Musick17]

HA! i wish i still had the red one

But its the gold one. Never got around to changing the avatar. I tried once.. and failed. Never tried again. I should probably do that. ehh, Ill wait til the new stuff is on

That sounds TERRIBLE!

They are not mounted yet. Dont know when they will be either. I primed the 4th wheel theyll be mounted on tonight. I got some stock teardrop wheels and did some custom paintin on them. The Auto's class at my local high school does work for really cheap so I think im gonna wait 2 weeks for the school to start up. I talked to the instructor already and they will mount and balance my tires, install my rear blocks, install my coil spacers, and align my front end.... for only the cost of the wheel weights. since I have all the materials already. Seems like a good deal to me, and Its helping other people get some learning in.

Those are sick tires man!
I just put some 30x9.5x15 tires on my 95 and cleared them with no rub at all, i'd bet you could pull those off with no lift, but the lift would definately give it a more aggresive off road look. I'll be adding some coil spacers on my rig soon

It would be absolutely STUFFED with no coil spacers. But they would go. Dunno how turning would be.
