    Tire question

    Wishful thinking. I highly doubt that is the source of your displeasure with the tires...

    Michelin 275/60/18 vs. 275/65/18???

    Ok, gotcha. Well for what it's worth I just put LTX M/S 2's on my mom's GX470 and they are really nice. Great ride, smooth and quiet.

    Michelin 275/60/18 vs. 275/65/18???

    Do you mean M/S 2's in 275/65R18 vs. 275/70R18? According to Tire Rack they don't make a 275/60R18. Either way, you are talking about roughly a 1" increase in diameter. That will slightly affect MPG, and your speedo will read slightly lower that actual speed.

    BFG Dry Rot?

    I'm going to say normal as well, mine look that way...well actually way worse. I've got huge chunks missing in the tread.

    2.5inch OME lift and Nitto Trail Grapler MT 295/70/18

    I bet you have hardly any front droop right now, those t-bars are really cranked! This will impact the ride quality as well, however you biggest issue is the aftermarket bars/springs with no additional weight. It's going to plain suck until you load her down. Check the tire pressure, tire...

    BFG vs Nitto. Lookin for Some A/T's

    LOL Trunk must be getting some kind of sick jollys from letting this thread continue. This horse is WAY past the dead, buried, and now returned as the walking dead to haunt us all.

    BFG AT Size Recommendation and Photo

    Oh I'm fully aware. With the next set of tires I'm going to switch back to my stock 18's and go with a 35" tire (35x11.50). The price makes you swallow hard, $360-400 per tire.

    BFG AT Size Recommendation and Photo

    The main reason I switched the 18" wheels on my 2004 LC for 16" wheels was the lack of 18" tire options. The tire companies just don't have the same options in 18" as they do in 16". It's basically either under 33" or straight to 35" with nothing in the middle. If you absolutely want to stay...

    Really, still going? Come on Trunk, put this horse down for good please.

    I'm at the 50k mark, and they are beat (chunks missing) but have plenty of life left in them. And my 50k is not nice, at least 5k of that has been off pavement.

    Wow, all this over AT tires, seriously? Judging by the responses I though we were talking about religion there for a second.... :D

    BFG vs Nitto. Lookin for Some A/T's

    I will drop one piece of info. I partially validate products by observing what industrial leaders use on their own vehicles. In this case, check out the 100 Land Cruiser gallery on Slee Off Road's website. You will notice a theme that most of the vehicles, including Slee's personal 100 I...

    Does not mean they can be directly compared, or assumed similar in any fashion. Pro-Comp tires are made by Cooper, but you can't compare them to any Cooper Tires.

    BFG vs Nitto. Lookin for Some A/T's

    Snow and Ice are two completely different animals. A tire could be excellent in snow, and very poor in ice in my opinion. I hear a lot of people post the GY Duratrac are excellent in snow, but I have not read any comments about ice.

    Goodyear DuraTrac mounted and tested

    44psi offroad is crazy high and only going to equal an uncomfortable and increase risk of puncture. With BFG AT's I never run over 30psi off road and air down to 14-16psi when tackling 4x4 trails.

    Goodyear DuraTrac mounted and tested

    "some" post in LR. That first one is heavily post edited. Back on topic, I'm really curious about Duratracs as my BFG AT's are toast. However I'm leary due to the sidewall weakness I hear about. I think it's just too new to know for sure, more people need to run them and put them to the...

    BFG AT/TA KO's 285/75/16?

    Wow, that's awesome, glad to hear it! I will be posting lot of fire lookout pics next summer as it will be one of my main goals to visit as many as possible. You really do you get see natural vistas that nobody else would see normally.

    BFG AT/TA KO's 285/75/16?

    A lot of good info in this thread. The main thing I took away was the rule of thumb of pressure change cold vs. running. In other words, measure the tire pressure when the tire is cold (i.e. first thing in the morning). Then go drive around for at least a half an hour to warm up the tires...

    BFG AT/TA KO's 285/75/16?

    285/75/16 is a very common tire size on the 100 LC. There are probably hundreds here with them. Now if you wanted a little more size (and slightly different than the rest), you should have gone 295/75/16... ;p On the street I usually keep my BFG's around 35-37 PSI all the way around.
