Default Any info on Big foot X/T tires

I am getting a smoking deal on some rims and tires. The rims are American Eagle series 185. I like them so no questions there. I have never had Big O big foot X/T tires though, so dont know what to think.

I have been running Big O X/Ts for years in Moab. I have had no problems with them and they have the best off road guarantee. They have really good traction on the rocks and are load rated E so the side walls are tough. The only bad that I have found with them is that they only go to 35". So when I went to 37s I had to switch to BFGs which will not warranty any off road damaged. I am still running X\Ts on my '06 Rubi LJ. Just be sure to rotate them so you do not get cupping.

Well I got them at lunch today. I think they are a great looking tire. I am very happy so far. They are a little loud, but I am comparing to wrangler sra's. I will let you all know once I encounter some rain or snow. I will get pics up soon too.

Default Great tire...

Great tire with the best warranty in the tire biz. I had them in the 285/75/R16 size, only sold them to go to 35's. They are siped, fairly quiet ride, a good cross between an A/T and an M/T. Go for it!
