I have the same wheels, 19". Been looking for some good off-road tires for it and can't seem to find much in a 19". What are you running on your's?

Thanks.

The tires are atturo trail blade MT's. They only have one size in the 19's 255/55R19. I just did 1400 miles on the highway with these and a day off road at Rausch Creek Off Road Part (Rovers on the Rocks) and they are fantastic. I'll be doing a full write up on them tomorrow but I'm really impressed with the tires.

Good to hear! I'll definitely check them out. Picked up my DII several months ago and it came with the RRS 19". Can't find much of anything in a 19" tire. I'll be looking forward to the write up!

Thanks for the info!

My Rover took the family on an adventure so that my youngest could see snow for the first time.
And then my Fan Clutch died

I posted a review of the tires and a video of the noise. Not a great video did what I could with the phone.

Edit: here is the link to the video
