Maxxis Buckshot Mudders

Offroadin89 · 12-22-2007, 12:54 AM

Is anyone running Maxxis Buckshot Mudders? How many miles are you getting out of them? Its time for me to get some new tires! Also, How does a 5in Skyjacker lift look with 315/75/16's. Im gonna go with a little bit smaller tire then my last set and I was wondering how they looked.
Thanks :thumbsup

I am also intrested in these tires.I dont put my truck in the mud nor will I ever 'Have a jeep for that'.A freind has a set of 315/75/16s I am buying for $200.They have about 5000 miles or so on them.I had a set on my Jeep 3 years ago and didnt have any troubles for the short time I had them but the wasnt any good off road.

I used to work at a tire shop and we carried Maxxis Bucksots. I eventually put a set of 285/70/16/ on my 98 ford F-150 supercab 4x4 and they were the best riding tires i had on that truc. I originally had a set of BFG's on it and they rode like crap. As far as off-road I never really used them off-road but on the road they were great riding and I kept them rotated and balanced and got a lot of mile out of them ( don't remember exactly how much)

Not to stir the water, but if you're not gonna get off road and into the mud, why not put a good A/T tire on? Some of them look as aggressive and you will get more miles out of them.

When i had my dodge thats the only kinda tires i owned 315/75.16 buckshot they wore rather quickly but there cheap as hell. I got a year out of them and i drive about 20,000 a year. And the commit about offroading you guys must not no how to drive in mud and clay. I could take my dodge anywhere a set of superswampers could go.

Buckshots are all I run on the hunting truck, (98 Reg cab SB Z71) they are great on the road, kick offroad. Don't know how they would do on a 7500lb truck though... Thats alot of weight... and I also don't know the load range of the tire.

Offroadin89 · 12-26-2007, 01:18 PM

I was reading some forums and I really like the Toyo M/T's . The only thing is the price of them. I was just thinking about the buckshtos because they are cheap.
