In my opinion this is a great value tire. Long tread life, good traction on almost every surface, and it is affordable by comparison to most other tires (and it looks cool).
Mine are mounted on an '04 Chevy Silverado 4x4 with nothing more than a leveling kit to lift the front end up 2-3".
Great tire overall, does its job well, and I highly recommend it to everyone I know.
I did not give it a ten because there are better tires out there, but none that are anywhere near the price of the buckshot.
If this tire was better in sandy conditions it would get a 10. I think Maxxis needs to make a tire tailored more for glamis, pismo, dumont, and baja type driving.
This is a really good tire, I just stay away from sand with it. It will do okay in sand if aired down to about 6-8 psi, but you better have an air source (and about 20 minutes of spare time) to air back up or you won't be going anywhere once back on the road.
Also driving aired down like that can damage the tires severely and cause separation. They are not designed to be driven aired down like that.
There are quite a few other tires that easily perform as well as the buckshots that are in this price range.....but they will not last long. I have tried several other brands that work good but wear out within 5 to 10 thousand miles. That is not what I consider value. For roughly the same price you can have a name brand Maxxis tire that can easily last 30,000 to 50,000 miles depending on how you drive and how diligently you maintain your air pressure.

To the guy who wrote as a con "they are made of plastic" ... you are an IDIOT.
Plastics are derived from oil by-products created by the refining process.
Virtually every tire made today is made from oil based petroleum products. It would be a near impossible task (if not completely impossible) to find any tire today that is made from rubber.
I don't know what you think a good tire is made from, but virtually all tires are made from the same exact ingredients.
If you didn't like the tires that is fine, but don't be an idiot and make comments that don't make any sense...DUMBASS (see, now that makes sense...because you actually ARE a dumbass).

I own a 2002 2WD ford ranger. 3 inches lift 33x12.5x15 They ride great and i like the road noise. Took it to places where others went in 4wheel drive trucks and didnt get stuck, but havent tried anything too deep yet. Also helped pull my buddy out of red clay they caked up like hell but we both got out. They also stick really great on the street when its rainin. Great tire.

I have ran these tires for about 3 years now. They still are good for a couple more months. Thats good! I recommend them to anyone. I do alot of street driving but occasionally I will get in the mud and I don't have any problems.

I don't see what guys have against this tire. No it won't go through mud like swampers but what will?
If you want a mud tire that you can leave on your daily driver and not have to change every couple thousand miles it's a good pick. Also a lot cheaper than other tires.

I recently slapped a set of 32x11.5's on my Ford Ranger FX4 level II. They are AWESOME tires. At first I thought they were a little smaller than I would have liked. They looked a lot like 31" tall tires, but they are wider. I just need 8" rims now. Anyway, i had these mounted the morning that I took a 300-mile round trip drive, and they did VERY well on the highway. They weren't noisy at all. You hear them, but I could barely hear them over the radio and the exhaust note. I knocked the pressures down and as they wore in a tad, they seemed to have gotten a little louder. They make the truck sound aggressive though, it's a nice little howl. Rain traction is surprisingly well, much like the 31" BFG's they replaced. Very good compromise tires, have yet to see the snow and ice though. They are also perfect in the gunk we call mud up north. Cleaned VERY well, and they can get traction in 2wd in the middle of the mud pit from a stand still. They bite hard. All in all, a good compromise tire.

Buckshots are great tires. If you know how to drive, they will last.
And to whoever said "I think that these tires are the worst tires i have evere seen in my life if you want some real tires check out superswampers" you put under cons "they wear out to fast on the highway".
You are an ignoramus and probably a young buck that does not know what you are talking about. Buckshots last a hell of a lot longer on highway than swampers. If you knew how to properly operate an off road (or possibly on road, in your case) vehicle, you would not have any troubles out of buckshots.

Only had the tyres on for three weeks 265/75/16, in that time Ive driven about 500 miles and two off road trips, first in heavy snow and ice, the tyres performed very well, the next trip was in sunny winter mud and wet slate and rocks some icy and I must say I was impressed, when the winter sun turned the fields to mud the tyres were very good self cleaning, which meant more mud up the sides of the car, but hey, it looks good.
As commented above, you cant get a better all rounder for the money.
Still got to see how they wear and what they are like in the dry thats why Ive only scored an 8 but even now Im happy with them.

Very pleased with purchase. Just bought a set for my z71 tahoe. Got stuck once so far in some clay, but was my error not the tires. I got pulled out and went back through my ruts with just a little more running start. Would recommend these tires to anyone lookin for a good riding, low noise tire on the road; But still capable to get you to those remote fishing or hunting spots on the weekends. O and i paid around $700 for the set (265/75/16'S)
