Ive been lookin at so many tires lately i cant make my mind up.

Ive got a set of super swamper SSRs that are 95% tread so i got good mud tire there.

But something to drive on everyday but still be able to hit the trail on if need be.
Really thinking bout something similar to the MTR design.
I have hankook ATM all terrains on my Silverado and they work great for everything they get put thru, but i think i want something a little more aggressive.

Then the size debate.
I have 265/75/16s on the Samurai now that are worn down, but only got them to move it around the shop since they were free and slick.

Thinkin 285/75/16 or 305/70/16.
But then again ive thought bout sellin the 16s and goin to a 17x9 and runnin a 285/70/17.


What yall think?

 

Here it sits on the worn out 265/75/16s

 

The best tires I have ever owned hands down for both on/off road have been my Toyo M/Ts. They are quiet on the road and awesome off. I have only had one issue off road with a very sticky slimy, clay base mud.

Not sure on your sizes though. I have only looked for 35's and 37's

 

I was lookin at the toyo MT and nitto MT but thats gonna be a lil rich for my blood.

This is what ive been lookin at.

Crushed glass & walnut shell in the rubber compound? Hmmm..... Never heard of that before.

 

dick cepek fun country II are what I have ran on/off road for the last 6 years. I get good road milage and they still have the tread to grip and rip if need be.

 

The toyo mts are probably the best multipurpose offroad tire but they are quite proud of them as you have found out. The BFG muds are typically about the same but a little cheaper. I have heard some good things about the hancooks

 

From my experience with A/T tires, toyo's last a long time and wear pretty well. They are pretty expensive that why I went with cooper's zeon ltz on my last set of tires. They might not be aggressive enough for what your wanting but they will defiantly handle some off roading.

 

I use Goodyear wrangler Silentarmor's on my truck in the summer, good on the road, and have pretty good traction off road, they see dirt around jobsites every week and never really had a problem. I run the Dura tracs in the winter and they are an awesome tire, with great traction, but are a lil nosiy on the road and suck up a little mileage.

 

We put a set of 32 11.50 15 wild country MT on my dads old IH Scout. It did awesome on the trail and in the mud.
