hey guys ------->>>>> https://www.yotatech.com/forums/f15/.../#post51667769

 

i'm probably in. sweeeeeeeeeetneeeeeeeessssss!!!!!!!!

 

yup....that's why I posted it here because I know you guys are semi-local

 

and brian doesn't have to drive as far...

 

And i won't have to drive as far as Ian!
Ian, if i go we could caravan(break-up your trip), and not in a dopey Minivan sorta way either!

 

yeah yeah, rub it in. somehow, you always have the shortest distance to travel

but yeah, you're on my way up anyway, that would work. i'd be leaving early friday (7-8ish)

 

Looking forward to it this year!

 

you got that new toyota yet?

i wouldn't mind one of these...

 

Should be picking her up this weekend. and what is that car?

 

Well guys, it's time for new tires for me. My current 30x9.5 M/T's have worn to the point where it is no longer safe to be driving with them. They got me through the winter that's all i needed them to do.

What tire do you guys recommend? I want a 31x10 or 31x10.5 preferably in an A/T (the M/T's are just too aggressive on the road). I like the BF Goodrich All-Terrains but they are kind of expensive ($628 for 4). Any other suggestions guys?

 

hey I thought you had those 33 12.50 Mastercraft M/T's on those outlaw wheels?

oh and Treadwrite is the way to go if you like the BFG A/T. Looking at the ones Jerry put on his wife's 4runner, you can hardly tell the difference. And I say this still being somewhat of a skeptic with retreads.

 

I do have the 33's but i don't want to use them for DDing, not only will i get terrible mileage but they stick out pretty far and a big ticket is the last thing i need.

I'll have to check out the Treadwrites i've never heard of them.

 

these are the ones i'm looking at

i might be getting a full set (all 5) with these

 

Those Duratracs are pretty nice i just wish they were cheaper.

 

Wow, quite a difference in Tread, Ian.... weighing out all the pro's and con's, eh?

Just for reference, I had those BFG LONG Trial(not rugged, ...maybe they've discontinued).... the Long Trial were GREAT tires, good in the rain and I got great mileage with them. They lasted longer than I kept the truck, 110K(bought it with 125K and put those on).

 

Brian, look into the Treadwrights, .... Cougar who has commented on here has them(but he has the Guard Dog ones, MT's).... and they got a really good review in some 4x4 Magazines, etc. 450$ to your door, ...and I think I talked to you about this before, no? hahaha.

 

yeah i've been eyeing up the treadwrights, they seem like a good bang for my buck. I'll have to read some more reviews on them.

And i don't believe we've talked about this before lol.

 

hey i know what car you're getting! an ls400! for your v8 swap!!!


i win!

(even if i'm wrong, i still win)

 

Wrong!

But i guess that means you still win?

 

hey brian your rims with the 33's are 15 X 10's ?? You know the backspacing off hand? With all the searching I've done for the past hour or so, everyone says these fit (which I already know) but hardly anyone is mentioning wheel width or backspacing numbers.
