Hi all,
I've read through a number of threads here about tires, and can't seem to find enough opinions that match my particular needs. So I'm going to pose another "hey, which tire should I get?" question.
I've got a '97 LC with a very nice set of stock size Michelin LTX M/S tires that the previous owner put on right before selling it to me.
I'm interested in trails and light to medium off-road capabilities, combined with good highway manners (i.e. quiet) in a desert environment. I won't be rock crawling (least, not any time right away) and I won't likely see snow more than once or twice a year, if that. Probably 80% of my use will be on-road but I don't want to completely thrash the tires with weekend trail rides. Some of the trails out here can get rough, though as I said I'm not rock crawling per se.
I see lots of opinions about balancing off-road capabilities with snow capabilities, but I haven't seen a lot of discussion that's geared towards those of us in the desert.
So - any suggestions?
