    Tall skinny tires

    3 Years since installation and haven't had any issues with the G003 (235/85 R16 on 16x6 0 offset OEM Steelies). Most taut and civilized MT pattern tire I used from my humble experience. No noticeable chipping, chunking nor cracking. I'll definitely get another set for my HJ61. I likely...

    Tall skinny tires

    The 8.25-16 XZLs were supplied to a local engineering firm here in my country for their mixed fleet of Land Cruiser 70 series single cab and troop carriers. As a consultant providing services to that firm, I was able to get a hold for a set. Never had a pleasant experience on those tires when...

    Tall skinny tires

    Depends on which Michelin XZL model you get perhaps. I've tried the Non "4x4 o/r" versions sized at 8.25 r16 (mil spec tire) and the sidewalls didn't had any give / flex even when deflated below 18psi when mounted on my 1974 FJ40. This particular variant name "XZL O/R 4x4" sized at 7.50 r16c...

    Tall skinny tires

    Still waiting for the correct rims to mount these tires on. The other 6 tires are still in transit so opted to use a temporary spare tire for the mean time. 7.50 R16C Michelin XZL for the 1974 FJ40 Build and 1982 BJ40. Despite all the lackluster performance review for the XZL aside from being...

    Tall skinny tires

    Been a year since I've installed my tires but never done much wheeling at all until today. Tested the brakes and the oem power steering system. Literally my 40's first drive. The very first roll on it's new shoes, 235/85 R16 Yokohama Geolandar G003 MT. Don't have anything to say much for the...

    Tall skinny tires

    Speaking of the Badak Xtreme, Accelera has been doing a great job expanding the tire size line. Here's a recent release in 33x10.50 R15 flavor. Perfect application for the Toyota OEM 15" steelies if you are still not contented with the 31x10.5 R15 variant. Tempting but I currently have 16" OEM...

    Tall skinny tires

    I don't if it's available there in North America but this tire is widely available in Asia. It's an aggressive / dedicated mud tire. What's really amazing is they keep growing the list for new sizes but only stay exclusively on the narrow profile(for now). Hence the coveted "tall and skinny"...

    Tall skinny tires

    Tire and wheel setup will be mounted to my BJ42 Cruiser. 235/85 R16 Yokohama Geolandar G003 mounted on 16x6 0 offset alloy rims out of an HZJ77. Struggling battling with rust and chipping from my oem 16 split rims (haven't tried powder coating yet). Heaps lighter and not that far in terms of...
