i just ordered some tires and I was wondering if anyone had the same size? I wanted to know how they ride and look. I ordered the BFG 285/65/18 AT. I was wondering what you guys thought of those tires.

did you get someone to buy your old tires????If you didnt what size are they? and how much? I was looking for the adv.package tires because i got the bas model and hate the tires. I seen the other post but wasnt sure if they sold

Just a stab at myself from Tellico. Locker clearly made the difference on a couple of rocks that I couldn't get over and Newbie could. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_rolleyes.gif

Actually what I am guessing you have is the BFG 285/75/16 AT like I have.

As HI said, they are great and with those better tires she made it look easy. Daily drive doesn't feel any different than the stock 33s.

I ain't no "authority" but going to 18psi is way better than 25psi on mine (no locker). But then I haven't done Paragon or Tellico http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

I changed out my tires but went with the same size and no issues. I don't think you would have any issues no matter the size because they just read the pressure.

I have the same tires and they do not rub, they are the same size as stock. Ipedog just got the 315s last night though

you can change to the next tire but make sure the sensors are put back into them. That is pretty much the only problem.

Laura When are we going to go wheeling? We got some more rain so that isn't to bad.

Did you go to Luke days or is that this weekend?

I'm going to have to check but if I go it might have to be Sunday only. I will check though. That sounds enticing to me.

I should also be getting my wheels and tires either tomorrow or Thursday so I will be ready for sure then.

The bass tournment is this weekend so thats where Ill be (pleasant lake). Im not sure where and when ill be 4 wheeling next but it will be soon, I would like to get new tires first but even the base tires do ok, also i need to get the trailer hitch on it so i can pull the quads out to where im going. I like to have both because my attention span is almost at 0%. With the weather warming up I hope to be teaching my kids to waterski (god willing my kids dont break any bones) they are getting to the age where its almost not cool to be with mom and dad even though were much cooler than my parents ever where. (I dont go out with rollers in my hair)and i dont have a station wagon, either)
