What mail order place has the best prices? I'm looking for tires to fit 22's. I am assuming 325/60/22 is the closest size to stock? I'm looking at the all terrian ones not the mud grapplers.
Thanks in advance, Mike

Just FYI, BFG just came out with MT's that fit 22" rims. They apparently go on sale earlier this month.

I am not sure if this will fit your rims...but it looks pretty damn aggressive! But, they also look noisy!

I'm really considering picking up a set of these with some KMC backseats, but what I want to know is just how close to stock height these tires are. According to the Nitto site the tires are 34.84 inches high inflated so what I want to know is what is the height of the stock BFG's on the H2? I've heard 34 inches and 35 inches. Just trying to find out what the true number is. Heres a link to nittos specs. Terra Grappler specs. |

(315mm cross section)(1in / 25.4mm)(70% aspect ratio)(2 sections) + (17in rim) = 34.36in stock tire diameter

DAMN!!! I stand corrected on the MTR price.
http://www.discounttiredirect.com/di...&rd=17&ar=1250
At that price I might just stick with the MTRs.  </div></BLOCKQUOTE>
I had found them for $239 but when I went to order them the guy recited the "national backorder" thing and said they are now $309. I passed.

I found the tires really gummed up when were at Paragon. I don't know if this matters to you or not, but they are louder than stock.

Thanx HummerNCO and Ken. I have not taken my H2 off roard yet but I would like to eventually. Most of my time in the vehicle will always be on paved roads because of the area I live in. You said they are louder than stock so what I want to know is are they so much louder that you hear them all the time. The tread on these seem to be less agressive than some of the other tires I was considering. I thought about the TOYO Open Country MT's or the Mud Grapplers but I imagine they make a lot more noise than stock.

The mud Grapplers are well known for their noise. If you poke around this site you'll find that to be a common complaint.
I have the Terra's. Awhile back I figured I needed a rotation before I ruined them. Took the truck in and had the tires rotated. Back on the highway they were making the same noise from, what sounded like, the same tire. Had them rotated again after about 100 miles. Same noise. About 200 miles later I had new shocks put on and had the tires rotated AGAIN. Same thing. It's the tires. I just never paid any attention to them because I'm always mashing the gas.
Got all that?  The point is the Terra's make some noise too.

I had the MTR's when they first hit the market years back.....they were great. Their downfall was mud and the fact that they wore out real quick if you do a lot of pavement driving.
