They are in short supply of the 33 muds. The guy on there told me the best thing to do is call the main number and ask about availability. IM going to order some this summer once I get my new softtop paid for. I trust them, though my Jeep is not a DD so Im not too worried about it. I think they were 67 a tire. Guy quoted me 475.00 for 5 shipped to my door or 525 with green diamonds!

You can trust them, I've used a set and seen many more, with no problems.

Hey, BH, not to sound like "Bling bling super poser guy" but how do they look? The site doesn't really show them very well.

I've had their 31 OTR mud tires, and they worked really well. I used them on my daily driver. I moved up to 33's, and sold these to a friend about 6 months ago. He drives about 40 miles a day on the interstate with them, and he hasn't had any problems at all. I bought some used 33, but I have a high tec 33" mud tire mounted for a spare that has never been on the ground. I'll take a pic and post later tonight.

Thanks guy.

I just remembered I still had pics on webshots when I posted them for sale. These are the 31 OTRs. The tires are dirty, but you can see the tread good. Never sliced or separted one. There's even one of the spare with Armor All still on it. I'll still get a pic of the 33 later. In the pics of the jeep it has a 2" BDS lift, 2" body, 5/8" MORE shackles. 33's and no transfer case drop look better. I've been on this board awhile, and I finally get to contribute something.

Hi Tec's are great.

 

[Snitty]

what do they have on the sidewalls

 

[kyjeepr]

I just added some pics of the 33's to my webshots page. It's mounted on the back of my Jeep. You can see in the pics that this one has BFG MT on the sidewall. The 31's I had before had Goodyear ATS on the sides. I would have bought 4 more of these if I hadn't found some used tires at a good deal. I did what alot of people do, and bought 31's then wanted 33's 2 months later.

Hey, I appreciate you doing that. Great way to get some props as a new member. Thanks!!!

But I can't see the pic of the 33's... Am I blind??

Thanks again.

 

[kyjeepr]

Nope. You're not blind. I uploaded the pics, but forgot to put them in the shared album. My bad. You should be able to see them now. It's the pics named tire2 and tire3. I still can't get one to show up. Webshots is a pain sometimes. They're in the Jeep album with the other pics. I can email them if you still can't get them.

How well do they flex when they are aired down?

 

[nkdskls1978]

They will have to put up with lots of hwy miles ... DO 33x12.50's FIT ON 15x8 RIMS???... i see they dont sell 10.50..

Pictures from my weekend trip to Shiloh Ridge in Texas

I only aired them down to 15 psi, and they wrapped around the rocks pretty good. 33X12.50's with fit on 15X8 rims with no problems. It'll hold the bead better when aired down. My 33s are on 15X10 rims, but I've never had a problem.

 

[mingez]

88Wrangles, I think it depends on the donor tire. The Goodyear mtr's pictured have very stiff side walls, so you have to air down quite a bit.

nkdskls1978, I know that you can fit 12.50's in and 8" rim. It's just the look that differs. Many on this site run that set up because they feel it gives added rim protection. I dunno, I run 12.5 on 10's. I'll see if I can drum up some pics for you.

Thanks again KYjeepr.

Run the 15x8 with the 33x12.5 tire.

The tires look okay, you can tell they are retreads by the line where the tread meets the carcass. If you contact them you can pick the brand of carcass you want, and stress that you want all 4 or 5 to be of the same carcass.
