I ordered the 33" ATs awhile back and was quoted 2-3 weeks on backorder. One week later I got an email saying they were shipped. Arrived a couple days later, had them static balanced and haven't had a single issue with them. They are A LOT quieter than my BFG MTs I had on their before, the car rides like a Cadillac compared to the old tires. I have had zero wear issues and probably won't be buying another brand of tires again. I do wish they made a 37 though. I hesitated for a looong time before pulling the trigger and my only regret is not buying them sooner.

I have over 15,000 miles so far on my 315/70R17 Treadwright Guard Dogs with Kedge Grip. They're on BFG All-Terrain KO load range D casings. I've 'wheeled them in every type of terrain, and my only criticism is that they have the typical mud tire hum on-road due to the big tread blocks and wide voids. I have yet to find another tire that's been able to outperform them, with the exception of a dedicated mud tire (Super Swamper) being superior in deep nasty mud. The Kedge Grip makes these perform head-and-shoulders above any other mud- or all-terrain tire out there in snow and ice. They drive like an all-terrain on the road, and they've shrugged off all the abuse of trailering and 'wheeling while aired down, which is supposedly the "Achilles' heel" of a retread.
You won't find a better set of five 35's for under $1000 shipped.

On top of the fact that the Treadwright Guard Dogs will outperform those GT's on most (if not all) types of terrain due to their superior rubber compound and tread design, I'm personally a lot more comfortable trusting American-made retreads on American-made BFGoodrich casings than Chinese-made tires built to be the least-expensive tires on the market.

Specifically? The GT Radial Adventuro M/T quoted above. But I'll put these Treadwrights up against any other tire. Of all the BFG's, COopers, Goodyears, numerous different Swampers, Pro Comps, Generals, and others I've run over the years on the 10 different 4x4's I've owned, these are my absolute favorite. I just wish I could get them sized 37" for a 17" rim.

Thanks for the input! And here is a 37" guard dog tire.
