Ive got these on my truck. If your going to do any towing with them i wouldnt recomend them.

do they make those in 17"....also any other more aggressive tires out there....man i wish the made boggers in 33-35s for 17s....:mad:

Yup.... Mine are a 305-70-17

Here's a place that has listed tires for the H3 which is what we need for our trucks
http://www.hummerproducts.com/H3%20Tires%20for%2017%20GT%20Wheels.htm

I am getting a set of Mickey Thompson (DlCK CEPEK'S)'s in a 33x12.5x17r for my H2's off ebay for $719.99 plus shipping. These are very close to the size of a 305-70-17. They also make them in a 35x12.5x17 and a 37x12.5x17. It's a good looking tire, but I don't know how it holds up.

i'm ordering a set of Maxxis Big Horns 305-70-17, kinda like the Buckshot Mudders but with more sipes @ $135 a tire.

Are the Maxxis' radial tires? Where did you get them? My Cepeks came to $789.42 shipped to my door. That is $197.36 per tire for OWL brand new not blems. I thought that was a good price. I don't see a lot of people running these around my area. I like to be different. Cooper makes Mickey Thompson tires, and Mickey Thompson bought out Cepeks. I believe they are made in the USA. Gotta love that!!

bobo - how about a few pics?

I will post pics of H2's when they are on the truck. I did some burnouts and took pics tonight. I burned of my 285's.:cool2: I'll post them asap!!:grd: :D :D :D

Ive got a set of Parnelli Jones 35x 12.50x17 E Rated tire, 8000 miles, went to a 37. May fit in ur situation??

Here are the pictures from Bobo doin his final burnouts on the Bridgestones... enjoy

The powerstroke did a decent burnout... although it was a ONE WHEEL WONDER! LMAO

p.s. I'm Bobo's brother Joe :ro)

Those pics are sweet!!! My new tires came yesterday. I get them mounted 8-11-05 at noon.

bobo

the Maxxis are radial OWL with 8 ply rating. I got them from a buddy who owns a tire shop; nice to have a buddy in that industry ;)
have not got them on yet, no time from work :mad:
i will post a pic when i get them mounted.

finally got them on, i say the difference between a/t's and m/t's are night and day when you get in the mud. my 33" pro-comps a/t's did not measure to 33" maybe 31 3/4", these maxxis' are exactly 33", 305-70-17

JMB- Those maxis tires look great. What shop is that in North GA. I am also in the area and liek that set up, got the H2's just need the rubber. Looks good-
