Ok right now I am doing a little tire shopping and have been looking at the maxxis bighorn in 255/85. Does anybody have any experience with this tire? I know one guy in my area that has had the buckshot mudders but nobody that has used the bighorn.

just put on on some 255/85/16 bighorns on my 96 D1.. So far have yet to take them off road but they look sweet, ride great on road with very little noise for a pretty agressive tread..

I've been a huge fan of Maxxis tires for years.
I've used the Mudzillas and now the Creepy Crawlers on my XJ rock crawler.
I have the 265-75-16 Bighorn Mudders on both my wife's D2 and my D1 and love them.
Hell, I even use the Maxxis Minotaurs on my mountain bike.

Yep, the old one was cracked and loose inside the old rim... I installed these yesterday and have not had time to get a replacement..

Dad has a set of the Bighorns on his F-250. Absolutely amazing tires. I'd love to put a set on my DII when it comes time to replace the AT tires I have on it now.

Where do you guys order your maxxis tires from, I looked em up and they look nice, I need a set of tires as I tore a sidewall open on mine and I needed new ones anyway.

Thanks,
Mike

$212 at Discount Tire for the BFG. I paid $640 for 5 285 Maxxis M/Ts. That included mounting, balance, taxes ect. The tires are great off road, but loud on the highway, especially as they wear. They also drop my mileage by 2 mpg compared to my same size ATs.:(
