Tires for tow rig ?

Re: Re: Tires for tow rig ?

Ha, yeah right....do you really need some tires for your 1500? I've got an almost new (1700 miles) set of 275/60/20 Goodyear's I might sell.

60 series too tall....my 3.42 gearing is already shitty enough for towing.

And I'm 100% on board with buying those eBay tires...sorry...broke folk is broke.

They're only 1 inch taller....shouldn't make that big of a difference.

I towed with a 5.3 and 3.42s and loved it. Everyone loves to hear an LS bounce off the rev limiter on the trail but heaven forbid if a tow rig drops a gear and revs up on the way to the trail.

I did too (duratracs), my Michelin street tires did better off pavement... never again

I want some Ridge Grapplers bad! Redneckengineered on here has some on his tow pig, they look good! As good of a tire and long lasting as the trail grappler and terra grappler is, I wouldn't bat an eye at the quality of the Ridge Grappler. I bet anything Toyo is way higher too.

This is the cheapest place online I have found them. Also where redneck ordered his. I first found that website via an ebay listing. They had the cheapest prices on the Ridge Grapplers on ebay. I think they look badass! Soon as my Terras wear out, I'll be throwing them on my truck.

I I just don't like wringing the guts out of stuff I own.

A good reason why my rev limiter on the Jeep is always set to 3 or 4 grand. Jus how us broke folk gotta roll...

Mine has the hankook dynapro atm's. I like em. That's what I'll go back with.

I'm about 1500 miles in on mine, but like them so far.

So apparently my offbrand tires are really an old Falken Ziex tire from a sister company. I don't feel as dirt-baggy now.

Reviews seem good. Good ol amazon coming through with faster shipping.
