FIVE HUNDRED DOLLARS A TIRE!!!?!?!?!?!

Damn... You got a ATM attached to your chest?

There are a lot better tires for less money.

I presonally like Procomp Xterrains, but there are a lot of other alternatives as well.

$500 a TIRE?!??!

Sheesh... I'm still blown away.

For $500 they should at least be 24s...

Ira53,

I have a 2007 with factory chrome rims and I am running 37x1250x17
BF all terrain k/o's. I have yet to have them rub at full turn however I have not done extreme off roading either but as far as regular dirt and pavement i have been careful at full lock but have not heard or felt anything and have seen no rub at all. Now this will not give you a wide stance look and does make the tires look more narrower than the stock look but you have to decide what look you are going for.

not worried about the look at all ,what I want is a tire and wheel combo that will allow me to do some moderate off roading with out rubbing. if I don't get stuck I'll be happy . thanks for your reply and it sets my mind at ease knowing yours don't rub .

You can do a lot of reading on here about tire opinions, I did and found the Toyo Open Country M/T's were well liked.

I bought a set and besides working great and looking mean they are quiet on the road unlike a lot of other brands of M/T tires.

Prior to doing much research I thought the Nitto's might be the way to go, but based on what I read here and lots of other sites, I'm glad I didn't buy those.

AFTER MUCH RESEARCH I have come to the conclusion that a 35-1250/17 BFG mud terrain on stock H2 wheels will yeild the best over all on road off road preformance . it has a 34.8 over all diameter and the 315/70/17 has a 34.5 oad it is 12.5 inches wide as opposed to 12 inch wide on the stock size ,so my clearance and spedo will not be a problem . anyone ever run this combo ?

I had BG MT's on my tahoe and wore them out in under 25K miles. I am much happier with the Cooper STT's and they are quieter. I would say they are equal as far as off road goes. The coopers are much cheaper.
