Thumbs up Got my new tires on
Finally got rid of the crappy ProCraps. Stepped it up to the Nitto Terra Grapplers. What an awsome tire.

I had 35x12.5x17 on before. They were D load range, rubbed when turning and terrible on tread wear. Over all not impressed on the ProCraps

So I Went with a LT285/70/17 E 80PSI 3750lbs, Not to mention the Killer Price.

Enjoy the pics:

'Twas a tire shop in my hometown in south Ga. a few years back. Got on board heavily with Pro Comp. I mean to the extent that the regional distribution mgr. came in for an event. Posters, banners, etc. and very aggressive pricing on Pro Comp tires.

A LOT of guys in my hunting club bought Pro Comps. Lot of unhappy campers. Lots of guys with wear issues, LOTS of weight needed to keep em balanced and just poor quality tires. One buddy of mine put the A/Ts on his Wrangler and had them worn down to slicks in 18k miles.

Tire shop ended up taking down all the pretty Pro Comp banners and stopped pushing the tires aggressively, but it was too late. Place is a vacant overgrown lot now.

Congrats on the Terra Grapps, you should like 'em. I have a set on my Grand Cherokee but in a 265/65/17 C load range tire and so far, I'm very pleased.

You'll find they aren't the best tread in the world for mud, but they are EXCELLENT about everywhere else. VERY solid wet pavement performance...

i have them as well. i love them, 8k miles on mine, barely show any signs of wear. i have the 285/75-16 D at 65psi. the fronts are slightly cupped from my bad hubs, though i rotated them about 3k ago, and they wore back even, i havent had any problems with them. i was also told that these tires are actually better than the bfg a/ts in the mud, and i loved the bfgs when i had them on my old ranger.

i paid $180 a tire mounted, balanced, and installed.

I used to run Wild Country M/T's on my F250...33x12.50x16.5...they are really good tires for their price too. They wear true as well and are not very loud on the highway. I paid $400 for them new mounted, balanced and put on the truck.

What kind of Pro Comps did you have? I loved my 37" Extreme MT's on my '98. I ran them for about 20k miles and a lot of abuse off road and when I sold the truck they still had 70-80% tread left on them. Just had to keep them rotated every 3k miles. Hopefully the TerraGrapplers work out better for ya.
