Hey man! I'm just north of Charlotte in Cornelius, NC. Your truck is one of the cleanest first gens I've seen! And in my avatar you can see the death of my old tires too. I had a hayday in those old tires the day before I got my new ones. Anyways, welcome!

I've got the same tires...they're worlds ahead of my BFG ATs in everything I've driven through since getting them! :aok:

 

In fact, the main reason I got them, was a friend of my dad's who has 4 trucks, owns Back Country Driving School, and is good friends with the owner of Land Criuser Connection/4x4 Connection in Winchester, VA (http://www.4x4connection.com) runs the Mud Rovers on all of his trucks (1988 Land Cruiser FJ80, 1974 Land Cruiser FJ40, 1987 Samurai, 1982 Suzuki HJ402 (little Sami looking thing with a truckbed)). He swears by them, and for the price, you really can't get much better of a deal!

 

I paid $130 each for my 32x11.50x15s. :aok:

thats good to hear cuze they were 667 without any replacement/roadhazard...i got my dunlops for 555 with the replacement certificates which i couldnt pass up and so far i like the way they handle on road in the rain and the little bit of offroading i've done...im a little worried about the sidewalls since i've heard lots of "issues" with these but i've got the replacement warranty so im not too worried about it...
