depends on where you get them

have heard good things about them and know a few people that run them. D.B runs them on his fiddy and they work pretty good

31's you would be looking at around $200 per tyre i think ? which for a quality tyre is pretty good

If you already know everything, DON'T ask bloody questions!!

Run 30x9.5x15 on my rally truck, ran them last season had 1mm of wear when I sold them to my co-driver and I purchased a new set for this season. Will be getting another set for next season if I can get the size that I want.
Pirelli made in Venizula 2 ply sidewall, BFG mad in the states 3 ply sidewall same tread pattern. Side biters work really well, quite a few sets ( 30's, 31's, and 33's) sold to members in the 2 clubs that I belong to after seeing where I could go with them, and each of thos guys is happy with them as well

You won't be dissapointed !!!!
I run them happily at 8psi on the 50, DrPc runs his a 5 psi and goes as low as 3psi with out problem (i must try that
). The soft 2 ply side wall is good for the light weight zooks as they bag nicely

Re: Pirelli Scorpion muds.
I had a set of these on my 80 series and unless I happend to get a dud set they were crap on the heavy cruiser, were out of round new, and a b4stard to balance (only had one set so needed to bal for road use to and from) and tore easy, on the up side though they do bag well meaning I could run slightly higher presure to obsorb drop off's and cause the side walls were soft did not pop off the beads. probably only suited to a lighter truck due to softness and less belting / ply's than other brands. Have gone to Summimoto's this year and find for the money the are much better. 

If you follow me in the bush you must be mad cause I'm plain CRAZY !!!

Re: Pirelli Scorpion muds.
Agree, good on the lighter mid size trucks, and like MTR's crap on heavy trucks. They wear real quick on the tarseal too. But other then that, They worked real good in central otago and westcoast mud when I had the terrano.
