Title: Went wheeling today (pics)
Post by: keith on October 16, 2004, 11:46:03 AM
Today the club I am in had another outing at a place we rent out a few times a year.  I went on some trails I had not done before.  The Tracker and the Hi-tech retreads did great.  There was nothing I tried that I couldn't go up.  I was making it up some places that other trucks had a harder time with.  It was a blast.  Wheeling in the fall is awesome.  The colors on the trees were amazing.

Nice pics.

Those are 235/75s you put on the stock wheels, right?

Now that you've lived with them for a while, how would you say they're working out, fit-wise?

Jerry, you are correct on the size.  They are 235's on the stock wheel.  I have only put about 2000 miles on the tires, but I am happy with them.  Actually today I discovered that in the rain on pavement they can skid easily when stopping fast.  I think that is because they have no siping in the tread.  I think that is true of most M/T tires though.  I may have Discount Tire sipe them.

I am happy with them.


Glad to hear it.  I was in a tire store yesterday and stood a 205 next to a 235, quite a difference  :o  As I looked at the two tires, I wondered if the 235 would bang up the wheel well on the trail.

Be careful on those wet roads!
