Default Tire Advice?



I'm currently ridin' on Bridestone Duelers... 31" x 10.5"... I was considering (after I get a 3" susp. lift) going with 33"BFGoodrich All-terrains. I put on a lot of highway miles, but, I want something that is still kind of aggressive. I still want to go offroading whenever I want!! Anyone have any advice on which brand would be better, or what brand I should get??</P>

Yeah, I really like the way those look. I'm just concerned about gas mileage... All I've ridden for about the past 1 1/2 yrs is a crotch rocket... so, this whole giant gas tank thing is fairly new to my wallet! I still have my bike though, so, I guess if it gets bad, I can just start riding my bike more often. Do you think the Wrangler's would be good on and off road?</P><edited><editID>Keggo</editID><editDate>38296.0275</editDate></edited>

I recomend SuperSwampers around 35 inches to help you 4wheel whenever. </P>


Seriously, I'd go with the MTR's. </P>


I ran 33x9.50 pizza cutter BFGMT's for a long time. They offer less frontal area and less rolling resistance on the highway yet you still get the height you want in the rocks. Aired down they work well in the rocks too. Nice to have the skinnies in the snow too. People who laughed at you at the beginning of the trail would be asking you about the skinny tires by the end. The pizza cutter MT's wore out pretty fast in the frontwith the locker andmessed up alignment. The 35x12.50 bfgmt'sare lasting a LOT longer (they must have &gt;30,000 miles on 'em)</P>


Summary: my next tires are Goodyear's MTR's at least 35 inches tall.</P>

I'm a newbie to the site and was wondering would a 265x70x16 or a 265x75x16 tire look good with a 2.5" lift
