    My only two real choices are the two I listed above, otherwise I am either ordering from a different website where shipping will be through the roof, or am buying locally. The only tires locally that are affordable I don't like, and they are still more than either above choice. The ones I do like the shop wants $1600 for, which is ridiculous. Also, I personally cannot stand a tire that is pinned for studs. I hate all the little holes...both the look and the fact that rocks get jammed in them.

    Since not a lot of people have used the Grabbers, I will probably just pick up a set anyway, and if they don't last then lesson learned I guess. I think the tread design will suit my truck well and will work good for what I need the tire for.

    I know a Dodge dually that is running them on his truck.But he also races it.As in almost 780horsies without his tuner.He loves them.He said he found those tires best suited his needs at the track for traction.Now when he went mudding with us once.Ya not so go in the traction there.Again there mainly a street/strip tire.

    I say get them if you plan on keeping them on the road and not doing any major off road like i do.Me personally i wouldn't run those cause of the type of mudding i do.N if you can indeed get them cheaper,go for it bro:waytogo:

    That's good to hear. They will see little mud but quite a bit of sand and gravel and also a daily driver. Sounds like they will work great for my application.
