: 39 or 40x12.5's ? Who will come out with them first, and would you buy ? flimmy 08-30-2002, 04:07 AM I was reading badassjeepguy's post and he mentioned 39's and who will come out with them BFG or Goodyear. Would you buy a 39" or 40" x 12.5 tires ? I would. I have 38x12.5 's now and would like to go taller but not wider. I would rather have swampers . elf_cruiser 08-30-2002, 04:59 AM I'd buy a 40x12.5 BFG Krawler. I don't think that the MTR is any better than a TSL, when brand new. The TSL gets hard after time though, and the Goodyears don't seem to. Just my .02 bigdude 08-30-2002, 05:28 AM BFG will have them first in a 39-40. Don't expect them available to the public any time soon, but expect to see them next season. Sundowner 08-30-2002, 05:30 AM since all the trendy tires now come in 17", is anyone goingto come out with a 17" cheapie steel rim? Aggro 08-30-2002, 05:33 AM :barf: Too skinny for me. I like my tires wide- but I also don't compete. Go2Guy 08-30-2002, 08:47 AM Has 17" steel wheels and should have the beadlocks soon if not already. reddwarf 08-30-2002, 10:48 AM I would like a 44x12.50" Looks like I'm gonna have to run Michelins, but damn...a Swamper sure wold be nice Ryan 08-30-2002, 10:48 AM Cheapest 17" steel wheel I've seen is about $100, cheapest 17" aluminum wheel I've seen is $150. BFG is supposedly going to make the Krawler in a 35x13.5, available in a year or so. I'm wondering if the 39-40's will be wider than 12.5:confused: flimmy 08-30-2002, 01:09 PM 13.5's would be good. flimmy 08-31-2002, 08:38 AM how wide are the Michelins ? Dustball 08-31-2002, 03:55 PM My 325/85R16 Michelin XML tires on factory 16x7 steelies measure at 38.5" x 12.5" at the outside tread blocks. Tread width is slightly wider than sidewall width. | |
