So I put my tires on today, they fill those wells and then some. Can't wait to get the lift on...

Hook 'EM!

So far they are not loud at all, just a touch louder then the stock Rugged Trails. I know as they wear they will get louder but I don't mind the noise. I have a set on my Tacoma that are about 3 years old and they are super loud!
 






i had dunlop mud rovers on my f150 and they were hella-loud!! but im sure the explorers have better sound deadening material built into them.

I will keep you posted...
 






I have had BFG MT's on for over a year now and I have zero noise complaints.
 












Lookin' good. Any rubbing issues? I switched out my stock 17's for 16's and went with a 265/75/R16 and have no problems.

Rubs just a hair with the wheel turned all the way, shouldn't be a problem after I install the lift. I hope, or I will be doing some cutting;)
 






nice tires
