Nicest tires for my 2006?

whats the nicest tires that I can get for my 2006 Toyota Tacoma

 

depends on what you want

I find general purpose (highway, offroad, crusty snow, ice) with a priority on pavement use is Michelin LTX AT2. really awesome tires. if you are doing lots of interstate then Michelin LTX MS. both are about the best possible tire when you are on the paved road.

Now if you are going to do offroad a ton, and mark up yer skid plates once in a while, others will recommend something like Duratracs or more offroad-specific. but those michelins will do fine here as well, except the deeper stuff where you might be dragging the bottom through mud or snow...you'd need bigger lugs

 

You get my vote for most ambigious question asked today


As mentioned above, the best tire you can get very much depends on the intended use. The best highway tire in the world will be useless in a mud pit and the best mud tires will hum like crazy on the pavement.

 

37" Nitto Mud Grapplers. $430/tire

 

I was thinking of linking this to the WTF thread.

Seriously OP ... Tell us what your intended use(s) are, and we can give you some recommendations.

I ran 395/85/R20 Michelin XML's on the Jeep for a few years. They were about $1100.00 each new(I bought them used). I thought they were pretty nice.

 

That tire, compared to mine

 

They were big, heavy and loved to break stuff. More than a few D60 and D70 HD shafts met their end trying to turn those. The 42" TSL's are much more forgiving, just not as nice on the road.

 

That's not a phrase you hear very often

 

it's a first for me lol
