Default Another tyre thread
Hi,

I'm not that savvy on tyre sizes at all.

All I am wanting is the same size tyres I have now 245/75r17 but mud terrains.

I really can't go any bigger due to I support alot of disabled people. Wheelchairs etc. My JK is already too high (2" lift) its a real struggle at times.

I have been searching but always seem to draw a blank. Is it possible to get this size in M/T?

Have you gone to any tyre shops and asked. Or go up one size if that's available, the difference would hardly be noticed.

No tyre shops as of yet, I have just been looking and thinking over the weekend. I was hoping to do some research, reviews etc

The tyre shops will be my next stop.

Thanks

Mickey Thompson ATZ 265/70/17's are only 0.1" bigger than the stock 245's,trust me you don't want to get another set of pizza cutters, I'm sure the other brands would be the same size also.
