I\'m thinking of buying some re-treads from TreadWright, any one have opinions.

I\'m thinking a set of these:

how come so small?  what are they going on?

Wingman:
Funny you should ask...

I just installed my 6th set; 2nd for the wife\'s Yukon XL Warden AT).  Literally, I just got home from the shop!  Best I can figure, 40k+ miles from the last set!  Be sure to ask for matching carcasses.

All previous sets \"balanced\" with Equal, this time I had standard balance done.

I\'ve had D-Mud, Backbone (D-Mud w/spacer), Guard Dog, Warden, Green Diamond...

I still say they are well worth the $avings!

Here is a link to the review.

JCJ:
I run 31-10.5-15 Kedge grip Guard Dogs on my CJ7, 15k miles on them in the last year with no issues.

I absolutely love them in the snow, better in 2wd than the original Big-O- M/T where when new in 4X.. No complaints off road, great in the rocks, woods and mud.

Tread wear has been great, rotated once at around 7k. Road noise is the same as when new, tread still soft and compliant.

I\'ve changed my build plans around available tire sizes, for the value and performance of these tires I\'ll stay with the 31\'s instead of 33\'s like I had originally planned.  Or I may end up going to some 16\" wheel for some bigger summer play tires from Tread Wright but I\'ll keep the 31\'s for winter,

I\'ll keep buying them as long as they keep making them,,  will be getting a set for whatever I end up deciding on as our winter beater,,  still looking at Pathfinders/Cherokees etc//

Mike are you questioning the size of my Rubber? ;)

They are for my XJ with a 1.5\" budget boost.
The only major upgrades I\'m going to make on the xj are a new set of tires, Aussi locker in the front, and a disc kit for the rear. Every thing I\'ve seen on line says the 235s will fit without rubbing. I might be able to try a set of 30x9.5 to see what I get.
Wingman thanks for the info, have you tried the crawlers?
