road tires
« on: March 10, 2006, 08:52:35 PM »
Hey there,

I was looking at getting a set of tires and rims for use on road for my daily driver.  But i dont want to walk into the tire store blind deaf and dumb, because i really dont need a $1000 dollar set of tires if you know what i mean.

I'd like to stick with a 30 or 31 inch diameter tire.  RIght now im running a 30 inch buckshot wide mudder. This is really just a set for flat towing and daily driving, snow, rain all that good stuff. I guess what im missing is a way to tell what diameter a 75r15 tire is etc....

I've shopped around the tire sites online but it seems to be difficult to pick a 15 wagon wheel and then pick a tire that is 30 in diameter.....  The sites dont seem to be set up that way.

If you have any advice i'd love to hear it.

I've heard good things about these tires.  You sure can't beat the prices:

Make sure the back-spacing suits the tires you buy.
