well i need advice from you guys with rock wheelin expierience i added the under carriage protection but lost a good inch of ground clearance . i want to put these on my stock wheels they are 315 / 75 / 16 "dunlop mud rover" and measure about 34.5 inches overall they will get me the 1 inch back , but is this a good tread design for moab or do you suggest something else ? sorry the pic is small , i also plan to turn the torsion bars one full turn and have an alignment done .
|
they look like they can perform well.
Havent' really read much on Dunlops but cant imagine them being too different from the norm that people are using. I myself am going with the toyo open country. Just cause i like how the tire looks on the H3. |
I asked Ken the exact same thing in a PM and he said the type of rock their is pretty sticky, others have gone with stock tires and not had problems. I was thinking of going with one of these... but not sure, still need to do a find on them to see whats been mentioned about them.
http://www.goodyeartires.com/goodyeartireselector/displ...mrktarea=Light+Truck or these... wich look very similar to the dunlops your thinking about. (just narrower I think) http://www.coopertires.com/us/en/ProductDetails.asp?Pro...le=Light+Truck+Tires |
crap, those coopers have been discontinued...

nmikes , you can probably track down the coopers they may be hard to find but they are still out there , might take some hunting , so many choices

The tires that come with the Adventure Series will be fine. But if you really feel you must upgrade, go with the TOYO MTs or BGF AT.

those are them. When looking for tires i look for road noise and i think the toyos were manageable. They are pricey though! My other options were BFG M/T but those were loud according to the specs i read. It rated a 4 in noise from a scale of 1-10. 1 being bad, 10 being good. My other option is what everyone is opting for the BFG A/T. They performed well at the last NCHG i went to on someones rig. But they dont have that big meaty look to them which i'm going after. BTW, i would be getting new wheels. the Helo Maax 7, love the look on that wheel. |
toyos are quiet, you'll never know you have tires at all
|
Toyo's it is then!

whats the official tire size?
|
these are the 315 / 75 / 16 toyo mt i saw three trucks with 315's today at the dealer they were all on 20" wheels they dont look this big .
![]() ![]() |
im gonna go with 35's as well! but i think, i'm gonna lift mine already. Went to Hollister today and was afraid to do many obsticles because of ground clearance.
lift and 35's should do the trick. Neo, with just 35's did you increase your hieght? if so... by how much? |
i got a good inch + of ground clearance . this was my reason , i added the Under carriage protection last week and it makes you loose a good inch "midship" . i wanted to get back to the clearance im familliar with and want to have good protection for utah .
if i have a rubbing issue the torsion bar adjustment with a 1" longer bumpstop will be my next step but for now seems fine . first i was told on the phone dealer would do torsion adjustment , after driving the course we decided not to one tech brought up the point of when increasing wheel travel you can actually make things worse . wheel can build up more force on upstroke because it has a longer range of travel and can strike harder . for now i will keep stock setting . HummBebe just did the torsion crank on hers , so will wait to see how she reports in . |
thanks for the update!
