I was looking for some thoughts on these tires. I don't put very many miles on my truck a year and I hook it 6 or 7 times a year and was wondering if anyone has ran these on the pulling track?

Seeing how the don't make the FCII anymore (at-least in 37-13.5R17) I had to go to the original and they wear fine and run great.

Can't speak on the new tread design.The previous design was the best damn all around tire I've ever ran. I DD a set of 315's on my 99 Dodge ECLB for no bs 50k. I did rotate them religiously though. One flat from a screw in that whole time. Even won the local dirt drags on them once. Hope the new design is as good or better. There just funky lookin though. Kind of get the impression from calling that the Dick Cepek line isn't getting the love/money/attn it used to from Mickey Thompson.

If you can find the original version still buy them. The new tread design doesn't have the same block design so it doesn't have the same sidewall bite as the original.

The fcII were the best tires I've owned. They loved to hook in any terrain.
