Alabama thread!

Thanks man. I'll certainly let you know if that's the route I go with it.

 

So tires ??? What's everyone running and what's the best bang for your buck looking for some 33/12.50 A/T

 

Buckshots just got a new redesign and they kinda look like open countries, im running bighorns and like them pretty well (maxxis makes both those m/ts) but since u wanna go a/ts i would say that cooper st maxx or duratracs i guess seem to be the most popular

 

I heard duratracs are shitty that's just hear say tho I don't have any personal experience with them I was thinking general grabbers or some ko2s but that are a lil pricey

 

I've heard really good things about the new falKen at3 and for the price that will be my next tire

Edit:sorry for the typos...damn phone likes to autocorrect

 

Yeah i have heard duratracs have thin sidewalls, but i also would think if ur gonna be off roading seriously enough to damage sidewalls, ats wouldnt be your first choice.
I really looked into the st maxx before i got my bighorns but these were cheaper, had better traction off road, And the st maxx only comes in e rating and mine are d so i save like 7 lbs a tire or something like that.

 

I personally have Cooper tires and they are great. Can't say anything about any of the other ones though.

 

My buddy has duratracs on his 4 runner but its mostly a pavement princess

 

I have probably 40k on my duratracs. No problems so far.

 

What you got discovers?

 

Reason I need ats is I got like a 75 mile a day drive to work and I don't want to spend a lot of money on mts and them get wore out from driving so much on pavement cuz I don't get the opportunity to go riding a whole lot since I work so much right now but I will be going and I want something that's great traction in mud dirt and road

 

I run cooper discovers AT3 load range E. 90%+ of my driving is city with 420-450lbs. in the bed. For what off roading I do, they give me the traction I need. I don't rock crawl or go through a lot of mud. Depending on the time of the year, I'll replace them with 53,000- 57,000 miles on them.

 

Michelin Defender 265/70 17

 

Yeah just cooper discoverer A/Ts

 

They look good I've thought about them but I wasn't sure how good they were

 

Just saying I love my BFG KO2's. They are a little pricey, and the 285/70/17 Load Range E is heavy, but they have worn great and ride well in my opinion. If I can get a better price on them next time I will get them again. I'm at 16k miles on them I think, and hardly have they worn at all.

 

in a cash pinch those walmart good year at's look pretty good I can't remember the name but the center tread looks like opposing arrows, I think they are kinda loud but you can't win em all

I think sam's or Costco has some clones too that might be worth a look
