Exactly what I was going to say. The mt117 extreme is now available in 31, 33, and 35 in 15 and 16 inch rim size. Same pattern as the mongrel (simex) style but befinately more agressive in the side lugs than the mongrels. I unfortunately havent had any experience with them.... not yet anyway :D
Jabber gone. Now have 98 nissan terrano and a 94 4.2ldiesel rv troopy on 33s slowly getting the fancy bits. How the hell do I change my user name?
