1999 Tire question
Hello, I am in need of replacing my tires and was thinking of Michelin LTX M/S. Good choice??? Also, the original tires are 255/70R16. Can I go with bigger tires on these rims?? If so, what size???

The Michelins are a great choice. I also like Bridgestones. Marcus offered a good suggestion. You can find out a lot at tirerack.
I put 285/75/16 on my stock rims and don't have any rub problems on a 4x4. You might run into a prob if you are 2wd.

I had both LTX M/S and Cross Terrains on my 1999. Even though both sets were the same size (265/70-17), the Cross Terrains looked a little wider. However, I believe that the LTX M/S gave me better wear and snow traction.

I guess that meant that 285/75/16 is the biggest size,,,,,,cool. Hey, buzzard, would you happen to have a pic of your truck so I can see what it looks like. I mean if the wheelwells look better filled. If so, you can e-mail it/them to bigblaze@optonline.net
Thanks,
