[Re: Kotrin] #781843 01/21/07 02:25 AM Joined: Oct 2003 Posts: 7,768 Central Texas BigJim Web Wheeler If you are going to drive it on the street buy a nice michlin LTX street tire... If you are going in the boonies buy a MUD tire.. The "in between" tires are no better than the street tire off road! So you may as well be comfortable with a choice of a street tire for daily driving. For me a 29-1/2" tire would be as tall as I would go.
