Tires! To many choices!
« on: July 25, 2014, 09:09:19 PM »
Getting ready to buy new tires for my truck.  To many frickin choices!
I'm liking the Mickey Thompson Baja Claw. I have 285/75/16  (33's) AT on now.  I think I'll go with 305/70/16, same height, 1 inch wider @12" wide.

I drive on pavement maybe 100 miles a month, if that.
Radial
Bias ply
10 ply
8 ply
4 ply

I'm so confused!

I saw that, nothing a new set of wheels can't fix.

I think it's a 1500 chevy. You might be able to stumble upon some 17" wheels in a 6on 5.5 pattern out there ( should be what he has I think)

Benefits of 17's over 16's?   Just so I may get a good deal on 17" tires?  Damn, more choices!  Ha ha!

Headed up bell mountain before it rains again.
Makes it nice when you live 5 minutes away

Bell had a rolled F-150 blocking it last I heard.
Here are some cheap tires.
