how do you like the remington mud brutes? Im considering them for a spring/summer tire as I like MT's but I like running A/T's better during the winter time (we get snow)

I loved the Remington Mud Brutes, they were a great MT tire
Nice wide spacing between lugs and they wore pretty good too! I still have them, I use them for emissions testing because 35's are too large for the emissions testing dyno here in CO

The remingtons were my new tires like 8-10 years ago, but I always thought for the $$$$ they were great tires!

Holy crap, 5.0L conversion in progress, that was 4 years ago now!!

Cool thats all I needed to know. Ive been doing some research on them and they say they're very close to the dunlop mud rover and perform just as well as a bfg mud tire. The thing that has me sold on them is that they're only 150.00 a piece for a 33" and they look mean.

SCREW THE DUNLOP

I had a set of Dunlop Radial Mud Rover Rt or whatever the hell they are,it was a cross between AT and MT, I paid $180+ a tire for those, waited like 3 weeks to get them, then they lasted the RIDE HOME

one of them had a sidewall issue, looked like a waterballoon sticking out the side of my tire.
Dunlop claimed I hit something on the road, an iimpact fracture and refused to warranty my 10 miles onit 33" $180 tire... it gets better
Not only did they refuse to waranty it, they couldnt get me a replacement tire for 8+ months! (on backorder back then, brand new tire)

Luckily I had gotten the Dunlops through my buddy who had a tire store, he took them back and sold me the Remingtons' instead...

Dunlop/Goodyear customer service SUCKS IMO
I had a HORRIBLE experience with those crappy tires, I didnt hit anything and even if I did hit a curb, every other OFF ROAD tire I have ever had can TAKE IT
the Dunlops = TIRE JOKE

Yes a bit bitter here, cost me a bunch of $$$ for nothing, was without a truck for almost two weeks (waiting on warranty claim, replacement info)
Screw Dunlop! LOL
