Recommended tall skinny mud terrain?

chpmnsws6 · Apr 5, 2009

What tall skinny tire do you recommend? Looking for something along the line of a 33/35 inch tall tire in the 9.5-10.5 range.

Saw a guy on here building a nice rig with a set of 34's that took some grief over them, but I'm looking to do the same thing in the future.

the BFG 33 x 10.50 is a great tire.

^^^I'm with Ghost on that, great tire! I run the "old style" 35x12.50 BFG MT's for off road and plan on getting a set of the 33x10.5 for winter tires. I had a set a few years ago and wish I had them back.

Another vote for the BFG 33x10.50 MT.

You can get the Swamper Radial in 33x10.50 also, but the road manners wouldn't be as good as the BFG.

Super swampers are available in some tall skinny flavors such as: 32x9.5, 34x9.5, and 34x10.5
I run 32x9.5 and I am going to go up to the 34x10.5 next time

I have a set of dean mt 33x9.5r15. Bought off ebay. These tires are made by cooper. Hard to beat 85.00 per pair plus shipping.

Those Michelins look cool, but a lot like the BFG Mud Terrains. What $$$$$$$?

another vote for 33x10.5 BFG's

Co-OP

No equal in the mud that will last on the road

35x9.50

I had some on the CJ. THe tires outlasted the engine.

Bfg's is what I'd do if you run the road alot. But 34" LTB's are sweet off road. Both good tires.

I run the All Terrain's of this size for the DD - This may be the only tire I run again - They are perfect size, height, etc. Awesome tire

My friend runs the 11r16 michelins on his XJ. I believe he paid $340 for the set, they were slightly used. He has one ton axles though and has broken several shafts. He has to run 0psi in them to get the sidwall to flex even a slight amount. Good news is they ride amazing on the highway (no sidewall flex) and last forever it seems.

This is the truck that made me start thinking narrow tire!

TNT · Apr 6, 2009

I like them taller like a Q78 Swamper with 27/32" of tread and are 35.5" tall.

OverlandZJ · Apr 6, 2009

I'm glad i switched from a 12.5 to a 10.5 width on my rig. Love it.

asp · Apr 6, 2009
