Hey guys thanks for all the comments. So far they are great. I wouldn't have a problem reccomending them to any one. As far as road noise, I can only here them a little when my windows are down. But Even still for a tire of this magnitude they arn't overly loud. I can still here that diesel motor that I love so much. I think that once they settle down It will be alot better. The baja claws I had were the same way. I have mine at 50 psi right now an it isnt to bad I am going to start to drop them to 45 and then 40 just to see what happens. And pulling a triler wasn't bad either. Mileage suffered a little but I think it is worth it for all the stares and jaws that drop. I had the ecu reflashed to 574 rpm for the tires and the moter droped 400 rpm at 70 now I am below 2000. I will keep every one informed as to everything else I find out about them. Cliff

Well if the tires are the diameter listed on MT's website (35.9") then technically you would need an rpm of 562, so maybe a measured height would result in 574

Rolling heights has quite a bit of squash in them. BFG 37's (True height of 36.8 in)has a rev per mile of 565 45 mph.
My best guess is 580...interpolating from BFG's chart for a 36 in tire. Maybe 574 is right. Very small diffierence...

Wheels
Maybe I've missed it somewhere, but I didn't find the spec on the wheels anywhere. They look like Welds, but width/backspacing are they?
They look killer with that tire on there.

hey guys thanks for the comments. Cquestad that is what the tech at the dodge ******* computed he marded a spot on the tire and ground with chalk then I pulled the truck forward untill the tire made one compleate rotation. We then measured that didtance and then he divided ow may inches in a mile buy the numer we got and came up with 573. something not sure what so he put in 574 and so far it has been right on the money.
