i just purchased a new version of this tire called a buckshot xmt yesterday. they look similar but with more of a sidewall. i bought 4 285/70r17 for my 2002 z71 silverado. you cant beat the price i paid $620 for all 4 mounted balanced and out the door!

It is clear that some people (likely kids living in their parents basement) post fake reviews to mislead consumers. Consumer Reports, as well as every other independent tire rating system, gave the AT's an excellent review. Price aside, a top 5 tire in every category.

This tire is great in the mud, hill climbing, and snow. They clean out exceptionally well in the mud. They do much better than average tires in the snow. As far as solid ice they don't accel, but not many tires do. I recommend getting a front end aligment when you put these tires on if you plan on using them for the highway. They aren't great on the road compared to radial tires like the BFG mud terrain, but I expected that. These are great off-road tires and very affordable

I havent even had these tires 2000 miles but they seem pretty decent. They do pretty well in the sand and mud for all terrains. Im hopeing for about 50,000 miles but i guess weill see.

had 2 years 235/85/16 on a 97 expedition. my brother has em in the wider style on a 97 stepside chevy ex cab. 4 of us wen muddin in the clay. only one didnt get stuck. had 2 blizzards this year had to make a 300 mile round trip through both of them. no problems. they dig dig dig. wear very very well 20k miles and still bout 70 percent life left. only complaint is if you like rappin it out spinnin and sliddin in mud/clay with the ocasional rocks underneath it will chew a little piece out of a lug here and there. i have skinny tires too tho on a 6200 lb truck (when its full of fuel with me in it). am looking for a similar tire with deeper tread depth closest i found is the federal couragia m/t. gotta check the price on those though. might be getting these again.

04 chevy 2500hd Duramax 6 in Fabtech lift,i am 45 years old and have had 4 wheel drives since i was 16, so its not my first rodeo. this is my second set of xtreme at's in 315,75,16 best pulling all terrain tire i have ever owned, for mud and sand in Fla and clay in Georgia, While the tread lasts, Both sets did great for about 15,000 to 20,000miles then noticed Stretch lines on side walls, dealer says its just seam lines where tires are put together and normal, but both sets have chopped up and been unable to balance once they appear, I hate to lose the traction i get but too expensive to keep replacing tires every 8-12 months, any suggestions for coparable tire, with a decent street ride too would be appreciated.

Look great and low road noise. Installed 38/15.5/16 on a Excursion with 10" lift. After about 35,000 miles had a blow out on the free way at 75(fun)One week later another blow out. Inspected other two tires and they had deep cracks at the side wall bitters.Tires still have 30-40% tread left. Replaced with Toyo open country mt's

I have had 3 sets of these tires, 2 sets on a 2001 isuzu trooper, the first set lasting 51000 miles the second lasting 53000 miles with decent tread left when I sold the Trooper. These are a fantastic tire, quiet and smooth for an agressive tread pattern and dead reliable in terms of traction.(lasted I just had the pleaseure of replacing the garbage goodyear forteras on my 2006 jeep commander 2 days ago just in time for a clipper to pass through the pittsburgh area. 5 inches of snow in the mountains.....these firestones didnt skip a beat as they didnt on my 2001 trooper. Anyone who is giving bad remarks about this tire either drives like a maniac or is not familiar with how an A/T tire is supposed to perform. Once again this is my third set and will buy again. You just have to remember this is not a 60000 mile highway tire, it is designed to balance between muck, mud, mountains and on road use.

great winch. I only use it to pull firewood logs closer to the truck. only down side is that its slow pull and when I put it in free spool to run the cable to another log, you really have to pull really hard for it to come. for the price, as of now, id still buy another one.
