This is kind of play on my first post, but i am wondering if anyone out there has run the buckshot mudders and how are they on the road and off road, they are not going to be my daily driving tires, they are more of weekend fun and summer camping trip off roading tires. Also real quick has anyone run Goodyear MTs, i have heard bad things about these tires but again looking for some real world information. thanks for all the help.
Are you referring to the Maxxis Buckshots or teh actual Buckshot Mudders?
I have ran both on different trucks.
Maxxis gets my approval but they do have a ''softer'' sidewall.
The actual Buckshot Mudders are nice as well. They are a pain to get on a 8'' wide rim though since they are a E range.
is there a real difference in the buckshots, from maxxis and the other type.
the actual buckshots come in one size only. 315/85/16
Maybe two sizes.
Get the Maxxis.
sounds good, thanks for the help, i am trying to find the cheapest price, how much did you pay and where did you get yours.
when i got em years ago they were 145 each for a 315/75/16
But all prices have gone way up.

I had a set of 285s they were 520 for the set. If you are wanting something more for offroad the bfg mts pull alot better to me. They are a little more money, not sure if that matters. The buckshots are ok though.
stuck shots are good for a cheap "mud" tire that gives ya that mean ass look. i hated the way they rode. they seems stupidly hard but i could run over beer bottles four wheelin and never miss a beat!
I was going to buy them just to use as weekend mud tires. No deep mudding just some less than sober fun on my buddies huge plot of land. I have a set of goodyear rt/s tires for my daily driving.
any luck? my friend just bought mastercraft m/t's and loves them, he has a 85 chevy running 35's and beats his truck to no end, i also had them on my old avy but couldnt reccomend them because i never had them offroad, he says they are great on and offroad but icy winter roads are scary
I ended up having to spend money on some other stuff so I am holding off on the tires, when i do decide I will take some pictures of how they look and write a review. I have heard great things about the mastercrafts, let me know when you do take off roading.
sold it, the 496 drank too much gas, got the one you see., my friend scott with the old chevy says they are great offroad, he got 35x12.50x15's for less than $1000
Those you mention are pretty good "weekend" tires. I have only run Goodyear MT/R's as well as the military Goodyear's. I currently have about 35,000 miles on a set of 315's that are wearing amazingly well...just gotta keep up with tire rotations.
would you say a set of 80% goodyear MTRs, for 300 bucks is a good deal.
I would say that's an okay deal. I had some maxxis buckshot on my old white truck and wasn't too impressed. They were obnoxiously loud even for a mud terrain and I wasn't too impressed with traction either. My best set of m/ts I ever bought were my BFG radial mud terrain km. I had those on my 73 bronco and loved them. They were quiet and wore very well 10k on them and they still looked new. I put 20k on the maxxis and they were ready to be replaced.
Hey, I gotta 73' bronco!
What size tires for the $300 deal?
I wish I had never sold mine, even though it tried to kill me thrice.Quote:

Retreads are OK for slo-motion on back trails but I've seen a couple blow up when a dude had his jeep pinned WOT in a mud hole....both back tires had tread separation. However, he's had the remaining two on a trailer for quite some time and they still work fine.
I just heard about these tires. One guy in the FD says the are the best tires you could ever use. The actual buckshot mudders. He says best tire sold in East Texas. He claims he use to sell tires.
imo, i would steer clear of some re treads, some are proven but others have bad news wrote all over them. search craigs list or what not, where im from we have the indiana auto & rv, you can find hard up guys selling wheels and tires crazy cheap. if you can pick up a mounted set for $500 who cares about the brand?? i got my 16" american racing wheels with mastercraft m/t's for under $500
Too bad you are'nt in TX got the hookup 305/70/16 nitto mud grapplers allday for 220 each i'm running the 385/70/16 (37/15/16) nittos on mine 300 each not blems either love em in the mudd and on wet roads no ice or snow this year. anyone in the dfw area pm me will pass the hook up on. imo though those buckshits are just that.
G’day, hace poco estaba buscando algo para distraerme y relajarme después de un fin de semana largo.Y terminé probando casino roulettino. Lo que me llamó la atención fue que para jugadores de España ofrecen bonos especiales que hacen que cada sesión sea más emocionante. Al principio tuve varios giros sin suerte y perdí algunas partidas, pero luego conseguí un premio inesperado que me devolvió la emoción. Desde entonces lo uso como un descanso divertido después de actividades más intensas, y realmente ayuda a despejar la mente mientras disfruto del juego.
