Kane, you need to tell your brother Thornbirds are possibly one of the worst off road tires made. They suck on the rocks, in the mud, and on the street. They are right behind TSLs and Boggers in road noise. They are OK in the sand, but thats about it and there are much better tires out there for that.  They do look sweet though. 
Oh, he knows... he just had them lying around. He put them on that Ranger, and I drove it with them on there. WOW... Bias ply tires SUCK on the street (with what, 5 psi max of air?).
Then he put the black rims with radials back on the Ranger. 5th gear was still unusable with the 2.9L V6.
Oh, and I forgot to mention he has an idea of making the car amphibious with pontoons and a prop using the PTO on the tranny.
