    I would take the guard dogs myself for a multipurpose truck IMO. As for Riff, if he WANTED that tire he would be asking about it

    No harm; no foul, Ram. I do believe JHarris1385 just really wants to save some $$$ overall and that's the main reason he's even considering the TreadWrights which are essentially heavy re-treaded tires on an old tire carcass for cheap $$$.

    I look at is this way-- JHarris1385 is already "half-way" there monetarily in meeting his tire purchase goal of getting a lightweight 33" M/T tire. The TreadWrights are >$100 per tire and the Yoko's are <$200 per tire. Thus, JHarris1385 has allocated enough money in his piggy-bank for 2 Yoko's already and is 50% done in meeting his tire purchase goal.

    There is something to be said about true happiness with your purchase and buyer's remorse regretting that you should have just saved your pennies a tiny bit longer and bought what your heart really wanted from the start. There is no worse feeling of saying to yourself "Damn, I shoulda' just saved my money a bit longer and got what I really wanted" VERSUS "I'm so much happier I went ahead and splurged for the better choice". Bottom Line-- you get what you pay for; there is no free lunch.

    My primary goal is that I truly wish JHarris1385 to be happy with his tire purchase whatever tire he finally decides to go with and that they meet or exceed his expectations which is a tire that meets "his" following criteria:

    o M/T
    o Lightweight
    o 33" O.D.
    o Wide Width
    o Good Looks
    o Cheapest Price Available

    JHarris1385 asked for people's opinion, and I offered mine from an "analysis perspective" that meets ALL of his criteria (except maybe $$$). My opinion is just that-- only my opinion. Again, no harm; no foul, Ram. Cheers!!!
