You need something more then a tire for a car if you expect them to last. _____________________________ Mike Retired service manager.

I have a second car, so I'd like to choose the best offroad option. _____________________________ ''''95 Disco I, coniston green (129K) with nothing major yet.

I would recommend a 245/75/16. _____________________________ Mike Retired service manager.

Not cheap but they are quiet and last really well. I have 30K on my current set and showing very even wear, good for at least another 20K.  I also have them on my Chevy pick-up.

Forget AT's then. Look at tires like Cooper STT's (they are fantastic in mud/dirt/rocks), or something with a similar tread. _____________________________ Tom Rowe Four wheel drive allows you to get stuck in places even more inaccessible. 62 88 reg 67 NADA x2 74 Air Portable - The Antichrist (tag 6A666) 95 D1 95 D90 (in reply to zracin) Post #: 8
