Wink Brigestones? what's up with the dueler A/Ts

Just wondering has anyone actually heard much about these tires? i saw em on a truck the other day they look a little streetish but they look capable of some off-roading. any info would be great, since i'm shopping around for a new set of tires (A/Ts), probably in a 33", any whose owned them how do they preform. (:

Thumbs up

i like mine. you'll find that the duelers are more for on road use definately, but can handle some moderate play. they are good for dirt road's and such, but not mud. if i was going to go w/ 33's, i would not get them, just b/c i don't think they would look right in such a large application. mine are stock replacents and i love them.

you might just want to decided why your lifting you truck. it sounds like you just want looks and if that's the case, then i would recommend 31's or something more conservative. if not, then the dueler's are not for you. maybe pro comps or bfg's.

hope you like whatever you get- russel

I have the mud terrain in a 31 inch. I have seen the A/T and think they look a little mild. But I am contisiouly amazed at the performance of my dueler mud terrain in mud and on rocks. Of course this is just my two cents worth.
