Time to replace my tires ... the Bridgestone Potenza's are shot... I was not impressed with the I'm looking at Pirelli P4 Four Seasons... any insight on those or ideas about other tires?

from my dealings with them on other cars here at work...they are not the greatest when it comes to longevity...the most milage I have seen reasonably gotten out of a set of this is 35,000 miles, though most seem to be getting around 25-ish before they start to complain...but the way they drive around here and the brutality rate of the roadways performing carnage the way that they do....that is as much a contributor as anything else...

Hey all.
I'm looking to put some 17" rims on my Baja with tires that have a little wider tread pattern. Has anyone else attempted this?

Here are my Yokohama Geolanders AT/S 235/60/16. No rubbing at all so far. Sorry, photo is from my phone but I'm busy being lazy.

Just Bought 4 tires for my Baja They are the Bridgestone Potenza G019 Grid 225/60/R16. I bought them at Costco and they cost me $105.00 each

You'll like the Grids.They are a tremendous improvement over the RE 92s. I've put about 35k on mine and they still have over half of their tread left.

Michelin HydroEdge FTW!!!!

Awesome on my Baja anyway.

OK, researched the heck out of a suitable tire for my purposes. Too much information was making my head spin and I think the Yokohama Geolanders AT/S 235/60/16 are the best tire for my situation. Thanks "gifters". No rubbing and a quiet ride for an aggressive tread pattern.

WOW price in Bulgaria Bridgestone Turanza ER 300 (Ecopia) 225/60 R16 98Y is currently reduced from $ 250 to $ 230. And $ 105 for potenza is very cheap ....

Does anyone know what the biggest tire size possible is without rubbing anything for a stock rim?

depends what you want in big wheels, high tire or wider tire.
If 16 "225/70/16 I think there will be no problems.There are many great distance from all sides in fenderliner

[MNBAJA]

I am looking for a tall tire. I am trying to figure out how much clearance I can give my Baja. I am hoping to get a 225 75 16 on there but I have to do some measuring when I get home.

[mladen99]

until you try you can not understand, you go to a service for tires mounted on a tire rim 225/75 put it on the car jack and start hitting the spot to rotate the wheel to see if rests somewhere. You can experiment with a second hand wheel thrown.

[Benhart21]

A 225/75/16 is not gonna happen. The problem you will run into is that there is not enough room at the front and rear of the wheel well to fit a tire with that large of a diameter. The only person I've seen that has bothered to do a bit of trimming and pounding to get a larger tire on was Buck Rogers on Nasioc, but it was a bit of effort for barely any gain.

Just got my new boots on today. Cooper Discoverer AT/3's

$135.00 each with a $70.00 rebate with purchase of 4!!!





I purchased the 215-70/16's.

There is about 1/2" between the front of the rear tire and the inner lower fender at the front of the rear wheel well. When turning lock to lock there is about 1/2" between the inner fenders and the corner of the tire. I was told it might hit if I hit a big bump when driving and turning.

After the install I found a radar sign near a school and at 40 miles per hour on the speedo the sign showed 40!!! Maybe this thing was made for these tires!!!!!
