took a trip out to Jim Dean’s Off-Road Center in Elma today and picked up a set of Maxxis Buckshot Mudders for my mom’s Blazer. $114 per tire (including mounting and ballancing). i thought it was a good price, and i did a decent ammount of research and found that a lot of people really like these tires and they wear really well (providing you rotate them every 3,000 miles, which is fine). i wanted to get Interco Trxus M/Ts but they dont make them that small
235/75R15 actually the stock size for a Blazer. personally i think they look a little bigger but i think its just cuz they are new and the old ones were, well, old lol.
yes i do…as a matter of fact, i’ll be breaking those tires in this weekend
they’re actually not loud at all. you only notice it a little if you are going like 65-70, have the radio off, windows up, and the fan/AC off. even then its not too loud.
on the way home from Jim Deans they were humming pretty good. i found out that he only put 20psi in each tire, so i did i lettle expeirimenting with the tire pressures and eventually settled on the 35psi that they recomend from the factory. they hardly humm at all now and the ride i better.
