So, I drive so damned much, on twisty twisty steep roads. I'm thinking about buying a set of rims and tires to make it a road warrior when I'm not wheelin'. (I can swap tires and rims in fifteen minutes or so) Any ideas on tires/wheels combo for that purpose? They'd have to be big because of the 4.56 gears. Yeah, the H3'd look funnier'n hell but I'm betting with some tight tires on it, it'd do a darn good job cornering and the mileage would go up and I'd get to work sooner!

stop complaining i got the stock goodyears (yeah thats the tiny 31s) and i get 14 mpg at best.
im gona be switching to the toyo 35s in several weeks, so according to you and others i mite drop to 12 mpg or less.
but its cool, looks and works better that way
dont really have any wheel/tire combo advice, sorry.
