tire choices... opinions needed!
 

ok i got my body lift on i have some 15x10 mickey thompsons sitting in the garage that need some tires.(33x12.5x15)

ive been tossing my head back and forth which tire to get so many choices.:headache:

i drive alot, mostly highway but do get offroad every once and a while.
i dont care about noise and wear, just a good tire.

anyway here is what ive been thinking.:shrug:

Trxus STS All-Terains 600$

I know you said that you aren't concerned w/ wear.. but the BFG's will wear (relatively) well. That will save you some big money in the long run.

Running MT tires on the street/highway is a complete waste of money in my opinion. Not that running AT's for strictly street use is much better..

What don't you like about the BFGs? I absolutely love mine, they're perfect for the types of driving I do. You said you didn't like them though, so I chose the STS cuz it looks cool and Trxus makes some badass tires.

I voted Maxxis. Kickass tire, but suckass in sand. I LOVE my BFG A/T's but I like the mudder look so I went with them and the Trxus look like they are for show...

i like the mudders, and i think theyd look sweeeeeet on your truck. BUT, i think bfg mudders would look even better ;o)

i think trxus are ugly ass tires that arent going to wear that well. I say none to the above and if you are even considering a good of road tire go wth a goodyear MT/R. good in mud sand and especially rock.



but everynoe knew I would say that...

Supergildo! Bout time you got back on

great tire if you have the $ to blow every year and half to get new tires...they wear to fast.

Zach mudders in the snow we have up here SUCKS BALLS beleave me there has to be like 7" minimum before they preform good. the BFG A/T will be your best bang for the buck on millage and also you will LOVE them in the winter there the ****. my little 2wd i can hop around everywhere with them no problem. my cooper mudders was hell when it snowed....

not realy sure, i like them then i dont:shrug: no real reasoning. maybe cause everyone has them?

i love those tires too but dont think they are in the budget.

Gil i have heard good things about those tires from alot of people but. the price aint to good :blackeye:




keep the comments comeing!

hey you get what you pay for. just keep that in mind.

very true. how do they do in the snow?

they do fine n the snow. the ce is what you have to watch out for.


EDIT: BTW the nly time I lost my truck in the snow is when i put my stockers on and i ended up hitting a concrete wall. never lost it with the mt/rs

Oh and thank you!!!!

i vote for the BFG's or the cooper discoverer ST

i vote Cooper.. the ST or the SST. They are great. I've had a great experience with them (no on my truck) and they're pretty good offroading. COOPER! :006:

if you people want to thow cooper into the math ok GO BIG OR GO HOME!!!!!! go with the new redesigned Cooper STT the new version of my old STT

How about the Goodyear Wrangler MT?, not the mt/r. You can find them in some places, they look mean, they go on military Hummers, must be great. One guy at my firehall has em on his s-10, they look awesome and like they would work well on road and off, never asked him about them though.

Bridgestone Dueler Revo AT

I priced a set of the new Discoveries today and they were $800! Man I want those tires but woah, that's some serious grip! The size I priced was 265/75/R16

Zach...Where did you price the Trus STS for $600? I like the tread pattern on the sidewall. Anybody have any experience with em'?

i got revos, good tire, not good choice of sizes. :dunce:

BFG All The Zach... :dunce:

I vote for BFG A/T. They have never left me stranded yet.
knock on wood :banghead:
