having 4 off road trucks needing tires costly. So even that Im a china parts hater. I got 4 mud tires 35/12.50/15 about 185.00 and 5 bucks to mount
and bal. This pre runner only sees few miles pavement a week . 90% off road tested work great on road loud like a fire truck. Will try to post picture
and name of brand. When I got my pre runner 12 years ago it had new mud tires china man tires. Sure did not last long as I may only have 5,000 miles
on them. Surly less then 10,000 miles. Of course truck is spinning and power sliding whole time. I got them in Ensenada.

China stuff isn't too bad I buy stuff from Harbor Freight all the time. However it will be interesting to see how well the tires hold up.

Antares? Antara? I can read the "Deep Digger" model name, not the brand.
What brand tire?
Aggressive looking tires for sure. Thanks for the review! Hope you continue to see good service from these tires.

That's a good looking tire and for that price you don't need many miles to get your money back! Hope to catch up for a ride with you next year!

HAAA John Ok Antares Mud tire Max Load 2535 at 36psi . Ensenada Store Econollantas tel 646 172 4075. Again tire size 35/12.50/15. Will get some
action shots of dust maker pre runner. As a side note on my other truck the new bfgs mud tires very short life. The old bfgs Alt lasted 50000 miles
still good . So far at 20 psi today good run I will lower to 18 psi maybe try 15. On this pre runner they used the 4x4 frame and front hubs. Sad to
say they remove the 4x4 for long travel. This ride not rock crawler . Any deep sand or hill climb speed is your friend. It does have a Locking diff
80% dirt with 5.40 diff gears manual 5 sp.

DK, thanks for the link for tires. The Anteres mud terrain that B.T.R. bought was offered for $160 or so in my size. The also have an Achilles mud
terrain for a heck of a lot less.

These tires only on pavement started making steering wheel shake. Real bad at only 40 miles per hour . A check of front heim joints was problem. 4
where shot after my 12 years abuse. I so far run 20psi front/ 18 rear the hook up is great . As I'm driving new deep sand canyons . That I would have
not tried before as this truck needs speed. To go in deep sand 2wd only but locker and 5.20 gear. I would not recommend these for street trucks .
Driven mostly pavement tires roar on payment and ride like a mofo with dirt bike tires. They are perfect for me as truck is off-road 80/20 street.

New report to my shock death shake on truck came back. Upon inspection (Dummy me) The tire shop put weights . Only on inside rim pound on type. That
is problem on most 12in rims as this only will balance tire static not normal out of round tire. So I removed all four wheels returned them to tire
shop . Told them now re balance with stick on weights placed in center of rim. Witch they did free of charge test run on pavement at 70 fixed.

MY first set of Super Swamper TSL tires came from J.C. Whitney, and they were pre balanced from the factory. They had weights that were bonded to the
inside of the tire, just like a patch would be.
Additional weights on the aluminum rim were not needed. The second set I bought years later at 4x4 Supply, and they were not pre balanced!
Does any one know of a place that can balance tires off the rim with that kind of internal weights?
bajatrailrider - 8-14-2019 at 12:37 PM
That is a great question I have never heard of that type balance. Learn something every day
