Re: Your Favorite Tire

my least favorite tire ever is a close tie between the stock wranglers and Kelly Chargers(had them on a blazer) no traction on any type of surface.

my favorites were original Bridgestone Dueler a/t's C.1999, I just got a set of new Dueler A/T revo's that I'm really starting to like, but haven't really had them off road yet or in the snow.

Re: Your Favorite Tire

BFG AT KO's right now 31's but on all my other previous vehicles either 33" or 35" (had a few full size broncos). might try to climb a size or so after the new springs, the bb isnt working out as planned, working on a new plan as i type.

Re: Your Favorite Tire

My Right Front.




























X2 on the Duelers. I had them on a Olds Bravada...you would have thought it was a Jeep from the places I went in that.

Least favorite was some goodyear AT's that I replaced the duelers with....Flat after flat after flat

Re: Your Favorite Tire

Trxus MTs for everything! Or for offroad only, Boggers and LTBs come in 31s. SSRs even go down to 27".
Jeep on!

Re: Your Favorite Tire

funny - spare
hate - TrXus STS Radials, can't wait to get'em off the jeep
like - ProComp Muds, handled well in all situations

next set - either geolander mt+ or TrXus MT
all in the 31" variety

Re: Your Favorite Tire

my Toyo Open Country AT's outperform my friends bfg ats in the mud on a regular basis. I think they look infinitely better too (at least when they are all shiney'd up for going to the mall, or on the "sick" 22 inch rims on all these h2's. dont give up on them just because you see them on every h2 with huge bling machine wheels around town )

Re: Your Favorite Tire

hated the 35" Pro Crap M/Ts- wore fast at first then they were hard to keep balanced. Once they got down to about 1/3 tread they were REALLY loud. Sidewalls are super easy to cut.

love my 35" MTRs- quiet on the street, balance well, and sidewalls hold up really good. I have almost 20K on this set and they have a little over 1/2 tread left.

Re: Your Favorite Tire

My favorite's have changed quite a few times over the years, but i think i've found a set to stick with.
Aurora's rt/02's Never heard of 'em before I bought them.
Paid $880 for the set on sale, regular $1100
Amazing tire for mud. And throw one hell of a roost.

Heres an old pic after first getting them on with the old ford wheels before i got my new eagle rims.(33x12.5's)
