buckshot mudders

Does anyone know if the gateway buckshot wide mudders are still being built (not the new maxxis buckshots)? I had a set of P78-15's on my 72 along time ago and really liked them.

U have options

It really depends on what you are planning on doing! if you plan on mudding the best tires you can buy are swamp Boggers they have the best forward traction of any tire out there.

If you plan on doing trail drives and lumbering up rocky hills you would want to go with good ol' super swamper TSL's they are very nice. My #1 advice is to stay away from Thornbirds.

I know the tires you are talking about, i had a set on a truck a few years back. It seemed they were cheap, got good milage out of them and did pretty well in the mud. I looked for them last year and all i could find was the Maxxis tires you are talking about. I came to the conclusion that they aren't being made anymore.

Good luck
David
