What tires should I get?
My factory tires are wearing down. What tires have people installed? Comments or pics?

Re: What tires should I get?
Lots of tires out there and you question doesnt give us too many ideas what you'll be doing with your rig... do you wheel it at all? Drive on the beach? Or just around town?

Re: What tires should I get?
I'd say, since you don't specify what you have, get some sort of 33" tires, maybe all terrains if you spend most time on the road rather then off-road. Or, get stock tires from your dealer, either 32" or 33" - it really depends on where you go with your truck. I use 33" mud terrains, they're great off road, bit loud on the road but I don't care.
You will have to tell us what is your primary vehicle use.....

Re: What tires should I get?
I'm in the same boat (hummer).
Have 70,000 miles on original 2006 adventure.
I have done a search and it gets over-whelming reading all the posts on tires.
I am quite satisfied with the stock tires.
I do go off road but maybe 4 times a year with hummer clubs.
But I do alot of hiway miles.
I think the best would be to have another set of rims with mud tires and another with hiway tires. But yes, that would be a pain.
Think I'll just go with another set of the stock Bridgestone Duelers.
I think Walmart even carrys them.

I have 65,000 on the duelers and they have plenty of tread left.
The work well in dirt/sand/mud and drive smooth on the road.
For a long lasting all around tire it the best.

Re: What tires should I get?
I have a set of the Duratrac's as well and I love them. They are quiet on the road and excellent in the snow. Best tire in the snow I have ever had. Never had them in anything else so I can't really speak on that. You can also keep your eyes open for a set of stockers. I have seen low mileage take-offs for $400 recently on Craigslist. If you have a little time just keep your eyes open and you will find a set.
