I stopped by East Bay Tire (Fairfield, California) yesterday to look at their STA tires. I want the 8-17.5s like came on our truck (still need help finding the rims) but if I cant find the 17.5s I will have to stick with 16s we already have - similar to the 7.50-16 shown.
Both tires look great if you like the tall skinny maximum traction type of tires. Here are some pics. The 8-17.5 has a very distinct center grove and the 7.50-16 have a more aggressive knob tread but no center groove. They're both about the same outer diameter but the side wall is taller on the 7.50-16. Here is a link the the STA web page - http://www.stausaonline.com/light-tr...r-traxion.html The 17.5s are sold as Fig "B" and the 16s are sold as Fig "A" on this page. |

Those pics of the 7.50-16 brought back memories of the bias-ply (8PR) Armstrong tires I had installed the day I bought my truck, in 1977. Stiff as anything, but excellent off-road traction.

Dont click on the link on post #46, it's got a bad virus on it.
Someone who knows how to get ahold of moderators may want to have them delete it. |

Yes they are. Great tires made by Cooper and the only place that has a warranty on muds 40,000 mile. They are 285-75-16s.. Took the big wide ones off and love the skinny ones.. Next is all new trim and paint..

Re: tall skinny meaty tires post em up
Has anybody tried a tire like this? I'm thinkin' one of these would run 200,000+ miles.
