Question – for California off-roading is it best to have the M/T’s or A/T’s?????? Right now I have the tires that came with the base model, and there is no traction what so ever… I was looking at the TOYO M/T’s. But, I also started looking at the PRO COMP A/T’s.

Go ProComp if you are on a shoe string budget because they are of "wal-mart" quality. Good bang for the buck.

Go Toyo if you want the best tire avail in a M/T with excellent performance on road and offroad.

Bullshisky -- walmart quality, thats funny

LOL!!

Toyo MT

From what I see Cali wheeling is all about the mud. Not too much rock. Toyo's would work really nice.

I've got BFG TA KO's which I'll be testing in the rocky wilds of Paragon AP this weekend. I expect great things!

I would have gotten the Toyo's but they weren't readilly available in my area and would have busted my budget. If you can swing 'em, get the Toyo's.

Actually, we have just about everything. Rocks, mud, sand, snow. Its just with all the rain this year, everywhere you go has mud.

anyone have any experience with M/Ts on ice/packed snow?

You got me there Sewie! I'm just thinking about Bebe's and Neo's (and of course, your) pics and its always mud or packed dirt, very little rock.

We just haven't got to those trails yet.

Well, hurry your a$$es up and get to them!

Yeah, Sewie could you possible get to those trails tomorrow???? Anyway, I got a price of $1516.00 OTD for five TOYO 285/75R/16 tires from Allen Tire Copy in Mission Viejo....

Well, actually, I'll be in the desert this weekend. Best I can do for now.

M/T are pretty slick on ice or packed snow. I usually buy new tires around winter and get the studs put in them, and sipe the tires then the following winter because the stud pockets fill with crap and its a pain to dig that crap out.. Siping the tire will wear a little faster though.

Sewie, where are you going off-roading this weekend???

have you checked "les schwab"?, I paid $1,400 for five tax and everything included. - Toyo MT's 315 75r 16.

I agree. That price seems really high for 285's.

Okay... I'll check today... Thanks...

Death Valley with the NCHG. A couple others on here are going too.
