Tires?
 
K i have a lot of Qs about things. i just like to kno what every one thinks. but any way im getting some new tires for my YJ. I cant decide between BFG mudders for $779, those jenaric wildcat mud terrains that les swab sells for $779, and a set of baja claws with black steel rims for $749. Im not sure what would be best for were im at. I live in ellensburg washington so in the summer its hills and dirt and in the winter an spring its hills and snow and mud. I have had the wildcats on a pickup and i liked em but they wore out fast. My dad swears by BFG. And the Baja claw comes with wheels. I heard the claw slides on hills easy but i dont know if thats true. so yea any help on that would help. im getting 31 by 10.5 to 12.5 because i have a two inch lift so i dont want them to rub my fenders. thnx any help would be great

tyes
 
I run good year MT/Rs; but i also only run 2200 miles / year... and 2000 of that is off the road... lol...

i like 'em...

u have a lot of choice, but cheap is not one of them, they are the ONLY part of your rig touching the ground... they can make a huge diff on and off road...

sorry i can't go into more detail' ive been drinking since 6

I've got BFG MTR's, they're great, better then expected. I've already put alot of miles on them and they aren't as worn as most people's mud terrains are.

i would stay away from bfg km's but not sure on others. I had those on the rubicon and after 20k they sucked on dry pavement and lost a little bit of grip off road. I have firestone mt's on my fj cruiser now, and there quite nice in the snow better than the bfgs and they had a bit better wear reviews.

I'm not familiar with BFG MTR's...I have Goodyear MTR's on my TJ.

Sorry, they are BFG's and I was told they were called MTR but I think they are something like T/A or something like that, I just know they are good mud terrains with descent wear.

Shouldn't you be on a fj cruiser forum?

Easy, killer! I'm sure he IS on an FJ forum... but he owned a JK before, and several of us here wheeled with him back when he had his JK - he's a good guy and I give him permission to stay. ;)
