Wow, actually yes. Here is a link to what I know. I just ordered a set of 265/75/16's from them and as you can see you can't beat the price. I opted not to get the green diamond as i'm in NC and we don't get rediculous snow and ice.

My BIL bought a set of MTs (not sure of specific type). The tire guys that mounted them were impressed. He did not do a high milage and has now sold the vehicle but they seemed to do well.

What kind of sidewall ply and load rating to they have? Our rovers are heavier than other vehicles their size. I actually like the OTR mud w/ spacer. Just wondering on the ply and load rating.

Default Tire sizes

I read this thread and folowed the link to the site. These are great prices. My question is what can I move up to? I currently have the Michelin 205/80/R16's on my 94, but it is time for rubber. How wide can I go? My EAS is out and I am running a 2" lift.

I am running 265/75/16's with a 2" lift. Just had to trim the rear a little.

Default Stock rims

Thanks for sharing the size you are running. Are those on stock rims? I am trying to keep mine on stock rims. I really don't do much off roading.
