Anyone use Trazano cr857 tires?

First time poster, long time creeper(through google). I have a 86 yota ext cab 4x4 22r 5spd. Looking to put new tires on, last thing I need to do other than smittybilt xrc8 winch, to complete the BOV/daily driver. Just curious if anyone here has seen, used, or know of any sort of review on these tires. Once again they are Trazano CR857.

Thanks in advance.

No experience with them, but from some research, they are marketed by Fairmount Tire & Rubber and also appear under the Goodride brand. They are a commercial traction design. Manufacture is likely in China. The tread mold looks familiar--it's probably a copy of a commercial traction tire from a major manufacturer...maybe the earlier BFGoodrich commercial design.

You probably won't come across anyone who's run them. Depending on cost, they may be worth a try. I don't shy away from Chinese tires myself--I'm about to put on a set of Nankangs.

I found that info to, sorry didnt post that I looked...from my local guy it will run 600 out the door so I guess its worth a try. I like to stay local, plus hes the best mechanic I know,but I do know I can get better("name brand") tires shipped. Something in me wants to stay local, I dont know dumb I guess and I think your correct on tread pattern also kind of reminds me of the Dunlop Radial Mud Rovers. Thanks for the reply/info.

31x10.50r15, I appreciate the looking out. Only problem is I am closing on a house at the moment so I want to get that out of the way before I drop the cash on tires and upgrades. I am interested to hear the deal though?

I believe it's a 50 dollar or 100 instant rebate, when you purchase bfgs. The a/t is a heavily reviewed tire. Might be worth the extra bones. I'd do some more research for things like tire life etc.

Talking

OK got them on.

great on road, only minor slip in rain from a stop if I hammer it (honestly ocifer I was testing my tires...)

offroad is amazing for the low tread depth. went up a 30-40 degree solid slick mud hill (obviously went slow and didnt mash it)and never slipped once!!

These tires will definately get replaced with the same pending price stays the same.

Great tread wear, have been on the road mostly and they still look dam near brand new. I suppose I will rotate them just "cuz" but, I will have no problems recommending these to anyone that wants cheap, mainly on road with occasional off road capabilities, and a good look. Tag for winter snow report!!!

If y'all got any questions post them up and ill let ya no!
