Pros: Great Ride in all conditions, Wet/Dry/Snow/Sand/Mud. Tough 33x12.50 Stance for less than $400.
Cons: First set lasted 15 years, I would be disappointed if these didn't last that long.
The Bottom Line: Looking for an all-purpose tire at a great price? Get the Sport Kings....they rule!!!

| ericd79chevy's Full Review: Fisk Sport King A/T Truck/SUV Tire |
Sport King's!!! Gotta love a tire that can take 15 years of punishment and come out smelling like a rose. I put 31x10.50x15 Sport Kings on my 79 Chevy 4x4 in 1990. I can't describe how well they performed in every situation since that time and now because you would probably get "tired" of reading it. But, suffice to say, I have NEVER been disappointed in my purchase. On-Road, Off-Road, Mud, Snow, Sand, you name it it's been there and I've never been left behind.
Sport Kings!!! Fast forward until today. Many years and many miles later and I would not be replacing them except I've noticed a little dry rot showing up. They still have pretty good tread but its time for something bigger, 33x12.50x15 Sport Kings. Took them out for a drive and the ride improvement was awesome. Tire whine is minimal and the view from up here is spectacular. Can't believe I brought these home for less than $400. That's right!! 33x12.50x15 Sport Kings for $380. Had to pay $4 for recycle fee of old tires. This includes new valve stems, lifetime balance and rotate. I had to pay extra for new solid lug nuts, $.50 each. So for ($380 $4 $12 =) $396 I have a Brand new set of Sport Kings with new valve stems, new lug nuts, lifetime balance and rotate. When comparably priced tires of this size range from $100 up I think I got a deal. Thanks for your time and I'll be sure to post again in another 15 years or so, ericd@charter.net
