got them put on. two of them took a lot of weight to balance. my first impression was they were soft. so i thought they had to little air pressure but when i checked they had 40 in them. i upped that to 46 and it seems to be better now. going from the 245 long trail's these are a lot louder and at least twice as heavy per tire. my speedometer is correct now.

Those look amazing man. Nice job. And I concur on the 50psi. It will hopefully help with that "heavy" feeling that you talk about. Because you won't be pushing the vehicle as much as rolling.

Those look excellent. I will be needing some new summer tires next year, looking to go to a 285 tho, interested in hearing how these treat ya. BTW we have the exact same paint color schemes on our hoes, first time I have seen a twin of mine.

Yep. It was a very small hole the tire shop put it in a big water tub to find leak. When he dismounted tire it was an old patch in it. He buffed it out and put a new patch in. I hope it holds.
