Newbie to this group. Also new to my Suzuki.
Looking for tire recommendations for my 98 Sidekick 1.8L 4 door 4x4. Currently has 225/75R 16, stock steel rims. We drive 15 miles on pavement then 20 miles on washboard dirt roads up the mountains to our Elk camp. From there it’s gets rough. Miles and miles of rocky steep trails sometimes going over large rocks, downed timber, mud holes and sometimes snow.
A friend with a side by side said I need heavy sidewalls?
What are your thoughts and suggestions on tires?

I'm bias because I live near Michelin's NA HQ and have many friends that work for Michelin but I'd go with the BFG All-Terrain which is a good on-road/off-road tire or the BFG Mud-Terrain which is what I use for street and off-roading.
