[mrhumble1]

Ordered 5 Milestar Patagonia M/T tires (315/70/17) on Wednesday, delivered then installed on Friday before noon:

Drove home twice with no radio and the windows down and heard absolutely no road noise. I am really looking forward to putting these on the trails this summer/fall!!!

HUGE thanks to www.northridge4x4.com (great price, lightning fast shipping) and Discount Tire for excellent customer service!!

Great turn around time!

Northridge 4x4 is my typical go to.

I've got it down to a science for when my packages will arrive in Illinois.

Kentucky warehouse: Next day, love it!

Colorado warehouse: 4-5 days, not bad.

Washington warehouse: 7+ days, I try to call and see if a closer warehouse has it in stock lol.

I just got lucky that these tires shipped from Utah. Free 2nd-day shipping on five huge tires is ridiculously fast. Hopefully the next thing I order will also come from there.

I ordered a set of 38x13.50r17 Milestars from them. I'll never forget the Fed Ex guys comment when I answered the door. "Are you the guy responsible for the big ass 38s in the back of my truck?"

Turned out to be a cool guy that had a lifted pick-up truck. Showed me pictures lol.

Ordered my 40's and XD232's from Northridge fingers crossed they come in soon.

Had 38x13.5x17 installed on new rims at discount tire yesterday. ~$160 each after (2) $50 rebates I was eligible for. I was set on Cooper STTs but with all the positive reviews, awesome price and low noise I couldn't pass them up. Even if the performance gets a little worse down the line and I only get say 30k miles I'll still be happy. I also liked the fact they were C rated which makes for a softer ride and better grip aired down. If I was driving an F350 then it would be a different story. You can see the typical size tire I deal with on my F150s to the right, then the stock 33" rubicon wheel and then these 38" Patagonias.

38s for $160/per, WOW! I thought my deal was killer.

3,000 miles on mine and they're at 17/32nds. They were 19/32nds when brand new. Hopefully that rate of wear will slow down now that the initial layer of compound is gone, because at that rate I'd get 25,000 miles out of the set on my JLU.

My cousin has 8,000 miles on his set on a Ram 2500 and he's down to 15/32nds on his. At that rate he'd get about 26,000 miles total out of his set. We'll see if that slows down any.

They seem to be wearing evenly so far and road noise hasn't gotten loud. No feathering, no chopping, nice and even wear.

They do fantastic in snow and rain. I've only had them on muddy and dirt covered trails once and they didn't really blow me away. They didn't perform any better than the all-terrain tire I was running before this.

Overall I still really love them and I'm shocked at how smooth they roll down the road and at how quiet they are. Very little weight to balance and they feel like riding on a smaller, milder tire. Very nice.

A couple 40x13.50r17 pics.

Carlton! I love the look of your setup- if you don't mind which wheels are you running on your jeep?

Also has anyone run the 37x12.5 successfully on the stock Rubicon wheels with a 2.5" lift? I have ordered my tires but I'm holding out for the wheels because I can't decide what to get and my budget needs some time to catch up to my build. Would I need spacers and the spare tire reinforcement kit or could I get away with running stock wheels and spare tire carrier for a few months until I could afford to swap it all out?

Google it.

Tireco makes them. Who is Tireco? And they've been making off road tires for 2 years. Sounds like a lot of experience.
