Yeah, that's pretty much bs. That's the whole reason I said no to the MT's : I could get 1 year out of the BFG's but the MT's would probably need replacing too soon.

Unless of course this new one lasts longer, which is always possible with a different compound.

Too bad they have been pulling our chains for 2 years on these. I gave up on them. I just run ET Streets instead. They have been advertising them for the longest time. They did the same thing with the 275/40/17 and it took about 1.5 to actually release them.

I hope they do come through in a timely manner, it would suck to have these come out in September. I'd love to even halfway hood with my stall on the street!

with 620rwhp...for me at least.

I'll pick up a set in the 18" size eventually. Wanna make another 100-200 more hp before I do though.

Is that just the 315/35r17? I've been waiting for the 305/35r18s for some time...

Is anyone running these 315/35/17? If so, any fitment issues? Do these run a little wider than your average 315/35/17? I want to put a set on some Torque Thrust M 17x10.5 wheels. I just want to know how much persuading I will have to do to the inner fenderwell to make these fit?
