Dave,

Sounds like you've started down the Cruiser path from which there is no return. Like many Cruiser Heads, I went down this path a step at a time: 2" lift, 4" lift, SOA and 32s, 33s, 35s, 37s, ... If there's any chance you're on this path, save yourself a lot of $$$ and leap ahead a few steps so you're not constantly changing your lift and tires. I'd suggest going to a 33x12.50 or 33x9.50. with either a 2" or 4lift.

I've had bad luck with General MTs, good luck with BFG ATs and better luck with MT/Rs. I just bought a spare MT/R and got a good price and free shipping from treaddepot.com. Walmart also carries BFGs and Goodyears and has good prices as well as Costco.
