thanks i just got them CHEAP! they are the used hummer tires 36/12.50/16.5
they have 95% tread left and i got them and the wheels for 350. they work great so far. i haven't had them off road yet. stock lift, i just had the front leafs rebuilt by deaver and they went from negative arch to flat. whenever i get the $ ill put new springs and give it a little lift. the new bilsteins ride nice though

My bother-in law runs these on his 97 f250 but I think they are 46's. Got the set brand new at auction for like 800 i think. Was running 42'' military tires which he had gotten at a previous auction for like 25.00 a tire (bought 10 at a time). When he found the 46's we redid his lift for them to fit. Only problem was he had to buy some 20's to run them. Luckily we had already ditched the TIB front axle in favor of a dana 60 when making the lift to run 42's. He actually lifted his truck when he realized he could get these military tires cheaper than what normal street tires were going for.

Thanks
Dave/Brandon....................thanks for the compliments. The truck is very clean and I'm pretty happy with it. It needs the usual TLC stuff, but the guy I bought it from did a lot of the little maintenance stuff. The air conditioning hose bust before leaving which sucked. It needed tires because it was "hopping" pretty bad due to mismatched tires and of course the darn overdrive wasn't working for the drive home so the mileage sucked and couldn't get it over 63mph!!!!!!!!!!
The paint on the hood peeled and it was spay canned white to protect it, so it'll get a touch up sometime in the future.
This the one that I want to be the "ulitmate tow rig". But you guys have me confused as to which way to go!!!! PODS or no PODS!!!
