well how are they holding up?any problems ...are they a good all around tire....i think i read another post where you already had them on..what kinda mileage do you think you will get?... i recently mounted some 35x12:50x17 bfg mt's on my d-max...with a little over 32.000 on them with proper tire pressure and being **** about rotating them,still have a good amount of rubber on them...i like the mickey's iv'e got a set of baja claws on my 89 blazer and they hold up to some serious bashing.....

i had michey thompson classic 2's 15x14 on there but i decided i wanted black wheels, so i went with the ion alloys 174's i think is the model# they were not bad $500 bucks. but yeah i agree i love the agressive look of the tires. and i got one that was egg shaped and mickey thompson did everything to get me a new one as fast as possiable for no charge. that was really cool. i will deffently get more tires from them in the future
