Off road tires
What is a good set of general off-road tires? Should i get new rims with it or just use the ones i have?

Re: Off road tires
is it for the truck listed in your signature? what do you plan on using the truck for? what rims do you have on it currently?

Yes, Mudding and very mild off road. I will be doing some in town driving also. I think they are stock buti could be be wrong. I want to eventually lift the truck 5 inches or so.1972hiboy wrote:is it for the truck listed in your signature? what do you plan on using the truck for? what rims do you have on it currently?

Re: Off road tires
they make alot of options for 15 inch rims. bfgs, goodyear stuff. personally I wouldnt mind a goodyear wrangler duratrac. Good tread, wear really good, and can handle weight.

I'm a BFG man abd the Wranglers have worked well on my company truck. Both are long wearing.

Re: Off road tires
You're going to be disappointed in your mudding abilities with a 2wd... better at-least weld them spiders up
BFG mud terrain wouldn't be too shabby.
