Default D.C. Extreme Country tires?

Hello all! Just curious if anyone is running the Dick Cepek Extreme Country tires, they have great reviews but I'm curious mostly how they do in snow and ice and how long they last. Loud? Any input from any that have had them is appreciated! Looking at 33x10.5's for the Blazer in the pic, currently running 31's

First off 31s to 33s is a big jump on our trucks. Does your truck have a lift or are you planning on lifting it to fit 33s? Those look to have similar tread pattern as a Goodyear dura trac so they should work well in the snow. Ice is a whole different story.

"First off", not to be a jerk, but you seem like a real know it all. "Our trucks" is a broad statement on this site. I've modified quite a few vehicles and I've always tried to do things the right way, I try to take care of my stuff so if it's going to tear it up, I don't do it. Look at my pics if you want to judge the height, it's a ZR2 that's about 5 inches higher than stock ZR2 height, I'm fine, this isn't my first rodeo either...all I was looking for is someones opinion that have dealt with these specific tires.


31's here...more than enough room for 33's.

I don't have your specific tire but the tread to my eye looks similar to my Falken Wildpeak A/T3Ws and those are supposedly excellent in snow.

Wasn't trying to be a know it all, sorry if I sounded that way. I didn't realize that yours was the white zr2 on here. Not my first rodeo either. I have 35x12.5 swampers on my non zr2 4 door Jimmy.

no worries, might have been the way you started off "first off" No worries though, all good man. I think I could run 12.50's honestly but there's no reason to now that more 10.5's are made and closer in price.

Thanks for the reply! I can't believe NOBODY has these tires on the forum!
