I argued with my local tire shop before I bought the 37" Hankooks. I told them they have holes for studs. They told me there was no 37" tire with holes for studs. I told them YES the Hankook has them. They told me they had ordered them in for other customers and none had holes. I told them to order one and see. The guy was actually pissed. They ordered one and sure enough there were HOLES!! 
They worked awesome in the snow and ice. I had them studded and sipped and they were crazy grippy.
So I took the Jeep out yesterday for its first off road voyage. I was fully locked, sway bars disconnected, and got high centered on a big dirt pile. I was all by myself so I walked to a buddys house that lived close by. He has a lifted Dodge Ram diesel with 38" tires. He tried pulling me loose, but broke the strap. Then he tried to use his winch and the winch wouldn work!! I asked him if he had ever used it. He said NO.
I laughed and told him it must be for show. So we doubled the strap up and finally got me unstuck. I really want the lift and 37s asap.

I finally got the Rock Hard sliders on. I washed the Jeep one time and there was rusty water coming from under the square tubing after only a week. I decided it was time for Line X to the rescue. Everything was filled in with seam sealer and sprayed in Line X. I only had them do the top and over the edge a few inches. 4.5" lift and 37" tires soon.
