## Description

NA

Review: Tires - This is my second set and they are good cheap tires usually get 35 to 40 thousand miles
Review: Excellent tire with a great price! - I absolutely love these tires. Great tire for the price. They balanced without any issues. I gained a little over an inch in the overall height of the Jeep. There wasn't any noticeable road noise. I was kind of expecting more of a hum noise at high speeds but so far there isnt any road noise to try to drown out. These tires instantly transform my jeep to look more rugged than factory tires. Havent had them in the rain or off road so I cant rate them in that category, but judging from all the reviews I've read, they excel in off-road terrain, particularly mud. There was only a slight rub on the inside of the steering control bar but only at full wheel lock. Easy fix for that is a set of wheel spacers, which I plan to buy and have installed when it's time to rotate the tires. I would definitely buy these tires again.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Thunderer M/T Radial Tires
*by W***H on October 21, 2024*

I mounted these tires on my wife's Jeep. One of the 4 took NO weights to balance and the other 3 took very little. She was pleased with the lack of road noise and handling. I've run this tread pattern in the past and it works well in all winter road conditions. One tire came on Friday, 2 came on Monday and the 4th came on Tuesday.
