The Ranger's got some new Sneakers

I just got some Pro-Comp Mud Terrains in a 33x12.5x15. I wanted white letters in, but I forgot to mention it, they're a lot quieter than my old Goodyear MT/Rs.

nice, do you have any lift with that? Also how is the gearing/power with the 33's? Never mind I see you have a 3" body lift.

oye, again.. everyone worried about loud mud terrains, I'm disappointing at how quite my MTZs are

good luck with the procomps, I've never really heard anything good about them.

I would run the white letters in that way people have a harder time seeing you actually bought those tires. After my xterrains and a couple friends with that style MT, Ill never buy another procomp product.

Im not too worried about how long that they last, I'm hoping that after I get my taxes back this spring and my refund check for school, I'll be able to get and RCD and
35's. But who knows, I've heard mixed responses about them, and they were in stock at my truck store, so I got them, hopefully theyre decent. haha

For the black letters out: Just flip your entire wheel around. Should be fine.

for me it wouldn't be how loud they were, but how they performed in the snow on a city road type atmosphere. i'm used to seeing people with over sized mud tires sliding all over the road during the winter. (packed, icy type snow)

You should wash off the blue paint.
