OK I have a 91 2wd 5sp with 225/70R14 tires. There are not too many options when it comes to tires in this size. I like the look of the 225/70's but i'm looking for something more available/economic. What size tires are you rollin on? If you have a similar truck with a different size please let me know.
THANKS:clap:

Ok, I Thought My Truck Had A Wierd Size Tire, But I Guess Not. I Am Running Aluminum Wheels Not The Steels. The Company Where I Get My Tires Priced Me Some Firestone Indy 500 Tires For $62.00 Each. I Will Probably Go With Them Unless Anyone Here Has Had A Bad Experience With Them. I Mostly Stay On The Highway But Once In A While I Will Hit The Dirt So I Figured A M+s Would Be Good. Thanks

ive always noticed accelerated treadwear with firestones. People always come in and tell me about how "un-old" their firestones are. granted, there are always some exceptions, overall i think they are bad buy. my bfg's haven't even passed 20% treadwear and that pic is after 2 years and 12000 miles.

M/S is basically a rating. all tires are M/S rated except for a few. warrior tires for example for not M/S rated. just an all season pretty much, i could get into more complicated stuff but it isn't needed.

My tires are barely showing wear dispite sliding around corners as fast as I go and the traction brakes loose, locking up the brakes, and multiple burn outs some around 20 seconds long (probably around 100 or so burn outs) and my tires are holding up.

You know you can get super swamper too?
