Tire Question...

17" Trail Readys... Why you ask?

 

[usmcruiser]

just planning.

I'm gathering parts for my 40 build. trying to decide what to run.

I like the 40 MTR's but $630.99/tire is a bit much for me.

Get a 17" wheel if you plan on running bigger tires, you will have a better selection... Hunt around there are better prices then that.

That was just a quick google search....I want to run 40-42's.

I was thinking 16.5" wheels but if 17's will give me a better selection.....

Hi All:

I'd vote for the InterCo IROK radial over either of those two tires.

I have a buddy that has been running a set of 37s and they have performed just awesome for him!

Regards,

Alan

under 17's seem to be in the process of phasing out, most new tires in the larger sizes aren't being offered in the smaller rim sizes. 17s are a much better choice

Radial IROK's?

For trails I'd look at IROKS. But if your doing a lot of DD then the MTR's will probably last the longest. I ran my 33's daily for 2.5 years and the fronts were the only ones that really wore due to a horrible alignment. Rear was locked and squealed around every turn and they still had plenty of meat when I sold the truck.

Bias Irok's if anything,

MTR's will be a better all around tire for you tho (wear, handling etc..)

I'll take my Pitbulls anyday over IROK's...traction, wear, etc....course both are bias tires, so their road manners aren't great....

suspect the MTR's will be your best compromise....

I saw the TSL radials long last and perform pretty descent in the traill .. not an option ?
