How are Dunlop MT in 35-12.50
« on: May 07, 2005, 11:17:10 AM »
I am trying to plan out my SAS project and am low on funds.   So saving some money wherever possible will help me finish this project sooner

I've seen these Dunlops in 35's for $115 a tire.  Has anyone had good luck with these?  I don't care if they don't last as long.  Maybe next set of tires I'll have more money since I don't have to pay for SAS parts, gears, driveshaft etc.

But getting a set of 35s for $500 mounted sound good to me.  I want to finish this project by the end of the year and have a long way to go as far as parts are concearned.

Ya why not. I'd say go for it.
I haven't really heard bad things about dunlop MT's at all.
They are in the same class of other radials like General Grabber MT's and Mud King XT's they are a cheap MT tire .

the side walls suck from what i've heard. But for 115 a tire you might as well get'em if your on a tight budget

I ran em a long time ago and never had a problem, I think they lasted pretty good too, who is selling them for $115?

I paid $175 a tire for my 35x12.50 BFG MT's locally so that is a pretty good price for a 35x12.50 MT.

Not bad for BFGs, not great either.  But regardless, that's $240 plus tax more.  Saving that ~$260 will put me closer to finishing.
