Light, aggressive tires
« on: May 08, 2005, 11:38:26 AM »
What are some aggressive tires out there that will do good in loose terrain (mud, sand, gravel, etc)? MTR's seem like they're pretty light, but I've heard bad things about how well they clean out... anyone have any suggestions on a light weight tire? Sizing: 33-35". Possibly would see some on-road use, so radials might be nice.

I've heard that Pro Comp Xterrains aren't that heavy and are pretty quiet on pavement.

yet again, ill sugest trxus mt's, radial, lighter then my tires, work very well on any terrain including deep snow and ice, very tough sidewalls, and they have awsome tire wear... they still look like new after a year of daily driving.

a friend of mien has x-terreains (35's) on his f-150, they are verry loud, i dunno if it is cuz the truck is heavier or what? but they are loud

my lug nuts require more torque then my engine makes ;)

Yea, it has a lot to do with the weight of the truck. I run 35 Boggers on my Sammi and they are LOUD!!!!!! I have a friend that runs 35 Xterrains on his Sammi and they aren't near as loud. I guess it's all in what you think is loud ;D
