Hi guys, new here. But due to the information I have been able to gather from 4x4wire, you guys helped me decide to buy a Montero. Here she is: Had to go test out the locking differentials and new mud tires. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> ![[Linked Image]](http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash1/hs899.ash1/180701_588731905001_62002887_32982816_3974623_n.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc6/hs071.snc6/168097_588732024761_62002887_32982825_4004601_n.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc6/hs062.snc6/167257_588732094621_62002887_32982827_6173690_n.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc6/hs054.snc6/168483_588731939931_62002887_32982818_340257_n.jpg)

Very nice! So did you go with the narrow tires or wide ones?

Very nice! So did you go with the narrow tires or wide ones? I put the 12.50s on the stock wheels. They stuff VERY nicely into the wheel wells and only rub on the sway bar at full turn! I got the tires with less than 4000 miles on them for $100 each! No complaints.

Very cool, I am liking my Duratracs more and more too... They just seem right on the SR's somehow. I think I am around 16,000 miles on mine too, and still holding strong so based on the fact you got yours nearly half off with only 4K on them, definitely a good deal!
'95 Montero SR 3.5L, Trail Gear Sliders, Rugged Ridge XHD Front Bumper, 33x12.5 Duratracs, much more in the works....

Great pics. I am buying tires soon as well and am trying to decide between 10.50 and 12.50. Looks good!

The wide tire definitely makes the truck feel more stable compared to the skinny stock tires. I may go with 33x10.50 or a 285 75 16 the next go 'round.
