MUD TIRE suggestions

Okay Im having a hard time finding tires that meet my size needs.

Im looking for a 35" mud tire. But i want it to be narrower than 12.5

Reason is 12.5 wide tires suck for mud and snow and ice. Im not sure why people even buy them.


Perferably I would buy a 33 x 9.5 BFG MT which they used to make. But no longer do. they do make it in the A/t Version but we all know that old tune.


So

33x 9.50
33x10.50
33x11.50


Or 35x 11.50 or less

All on a 15 inch rim




Anybody know of anything like this? I want 35's for the look. 33's will work though.



Thanks for any input

verry nice a hole.


Now just so you know, i could search through 1000s of pages of reviews from different sights. Like your implying

But right now im stuck tethering my cell phone to my computer on a super slow network.

And by posting here, i can get a consolidated opinion buy users of what they find that meets my needs.


Thanks though. I appreciate your advice

Super swamper LTBs come in a 34x10.50. Don't know if you'd be that interested in a swamper though.

If you switched to 16 inch wheels you would be able to find quite a few. the 15 inch wheels limit you ALOT.

Like Razor said, the Super Swamper line up has all sorts of odd sizes.

The 33 X 10.5 BFG MT's may be you best bet. If you don't see a lot of mud, the AT's make for a great winter tire. They do well on the street, and decent off road, as long as the lugs don't fill up. I see you have MT's on your '99, so you know how they behave. Personally, I would go with the 33's over the 35's unless you have the room for them, and need all the clearence you can get.
