Time has come to put new rubber on Owl.

Choices :

Goodyear Wrangler HP (like he has)
Goodyear Wrangler AP (AT's?)
Goodyear Wranger MT/R's

Problem - size - 255/55/R19

Top speed of vehicle seems to ensure MT's are out? OR do they really make 130mph+ MT's?

Stick with what you have or similar... anything else will mess up the handling and the braking

I'd go with the same Goodyears you already have.
Or maybe the A/T's
Or how about some BF Goodrich?
Such a hard decision to make.
 :shock:
Thought about Yokohama's? Great tyres but apparently they wear down fast!
Sod it, go with the Goodyears.
How about Michelin's
Tough choice!
