Default LM Tires

BF Goodrich has a real nice tire:




Goodrich 35x12.50R17/C: rim 8.5 - 11, width 13.2, dia 34.6
stock tire 345/60-17: rim 9.5-12, width 13.6, dia 33.3

The Goodrich tire is about 1 inch taller.

price here is about $400.00

I'm going to try some.....

They are called: Baja T/A, they are new, only available to racers until now.

The only problem with the Baja tire is that is taller by over an inch. If you crank the wheel over on MY truck and measure the distance from the driver side tire 2 the inner fender there is only .5" clearance...a taller tire will most likely rub! super swampers website is www.intercotire.com the phone number they have 2 contact your nearest dealer is #337-334-3814

This is a picture of the STS tire I will be getting

Have you guys looked at the Dunlops??? I have a set on my 4WD Amigo....that's had huge Tires on from right after I brought her home, & two things...they are "quiet" (you'll "Get It" after any Trip) and they fit & perform very well!

abunawafff, they should not rub! They are almost the same height as stock and they are a tiny bit narrower. When I get them on the truck I will take some pictures and let you know how they fit. I have looked at alot of tires and finding a tire that was close 2 the right size and not a full on 4x4 mud tire was difficult.

Try Mickey Thompson, and Pro Comp they both have a selection of more conservative patterns.
