Anyone have any suggestions as to what kind of tires I should get for my bronco next? I go through tires like theres no tomorrow and I'm wanting something that will last me a little longer. Anyone have any ideas? I travel from Sacramento to Fresno all the time to go on runs with my family. Thanks...;)
what tires are you currently running and what size. even before knowing the answer im guessing bfg mt ta or goodyear mtrs are the way for yah to go

Yep, I'd say BFG's if yer worried about longevity...MTR's are pretty soft (and way expensive) anyone run them on the street much?? Do they last??

Buy some nice 16" wheels and a set of Michelin XL military tires, these tires are phenomenal for highway wear and work excellent off raod, but that is why they are so darn expensive!

Right now I have 38.5 super swampers. I love them off road, but the street has just torn them up! getting real expensive!

Yeh I run the goodyear MTR's and they are real soft but they last longer than the BFG mud's and that is one reason they cost$$$$$$

Michelin XL are available in a 11.00r16 which equates to 38.7x11x16 with a load range of "E", these tires are built for military use. I have never seen a super swamper on a devoted military truck partly due to the lack of load range options. To find out more on the XL go to http://truckus.webmichelin.com/
Truly a good set of rubbers!!!
