ORIGINAL: NiteTrain

are you sure those are 34's? look more like 31's..also swampers run big so 34's measure out to be almost 35 inches. BTW very nice looking rover, I would like to have the same setup when I start off-roading my rover.


Thanks for the compliment NiteTrain.


But yeah, I am sure they are 34". I would go grab a picture of them close enough to see the lettering, but I've been up 24+ hours doing random crap. So I'm going to pass out here fairly soon. I'll get a pic when I get up.

I second the Cooper S/T's, have had several sets on my FedEx van and they blow the BFG A/T's out of the water for half the price.

I have been running the Bridgestone Duller line for many many years. I have had no disappointments with the tires thus far.

I am on my second set of BFG A/t's. They have been a good tire for everything I do.

street, when you get a chance to take that pic could you do me a favor and measure the outside diameter? The only reason I'm asking is because I want this exact look/stance for my rover and was thinking I could get it with 31 inch swampers...also, are they radial or bias ply TSLs?

I have the Cooper S/T as well and have been thrilled with them in the recent NW weather. Great price and great performance.

im having GREAT results with bridgestone dueler A/Ts! i do absolutely STUPID stuff with my rover off road on a almost daily basis. they are great in everything but mud in which the suck. i just got done doing a twice-across-the-country drive during one of the worst winters in memory and these tires did fabulous.

they were pretty reasonably priced too.

just my $.02

I previously recommended Bridgestone Dueler A/Ts. After driving them on ice I have to retract that recommendation. They're decent in snow but suck on ice. I would have better traction on ice skates. I run Goodyear Wrangler Silent Armors on my Dodge and love them. They're great all around tires. Ice, snow, dry roads, off road. Great tires. Pricy but great tires.
