So who makes a tire in a 34" flavor? - Land Rovers Only

Funrover · 10-09-2007, 10:07 PM

I would really like a BFG AT but can't seem to find....So what options do I have?

stolenheron · 10-10-2007, 06:25 AM

does Nitto or Toyo make 34"?

rmuller · 10-10-2007, 07:32 AM

In a BFG AT you hvae two options
295/75/16 -- 33.5x11.6 (rare, havent seen this size around)
315/75/16 -- 34.7x12.1 (more like a 35)

In the MT, the 255/85/16 is 33.3x10

rmuller · 10-10-2007, 07:56 AM

Oh yeah, Interco makes some super swampers that size also.. I know they have a 34x9.5 pizza cutter .. forget if its a LTB or TSL..

Interco SSR 285/75-16 are oversized and almost 34". They also make a trXus MT in 34x12.5-16.

I just had these SSRs mounted this morning on RRC 3 spoke 16x7 wheels. The comparison is a Goodyear MTR 265/75-16 on a 16x8 wheel. The fact that the SSR is slightly in the foreground exagerates it's size a bit but you get the idea, they are a big step up.

Go with the 315/75r16's BFG makes them in both the TA and KO.
Thats probably what I'm going with on the 55

Good luck with trying to turn that tire (or stop) with a 2 litre engine.

Cool, are you shortening a coiler frame and putting the S1 body on it?

Thats what I'm trying to decide..

The series frame is in great shape but I'm probably going to stretch out the weelbase quite a bit so The D1 frame might be the better way to go.
I'm not using the coil spring supension but making a custom front and rear 4 link and using Emulsion Shocks. I have 90% of the parts its just getting everything set up right..

Sounds like it will be a sweet hybrid.

Funrover · 10-10-2007, 10:05 AM

I am leary about going to 35" but I guess it's not much more if I plan on upgrading axles and all.....

Interco makes a TSL thats tall and skinny, 9/34-16LT which comes out to 34X9 or something like that. Its a little more aggresive than an AT.

I think the BFG AT comes in a 33X9 but its for a 15" wheel.
