codybutz Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 Hey guys this might be a little off topic sorry about this. i'm having trouble deciding on some new tires for my lifted xj. the xj is used as a d/d, for camping, at off road parks, and mostly on old logging trails. At first i was looking at the bfg km2's, and the pro comp x-terrains and now ive been leaning towards the bfg all-terrains. I need some help with choosing my tires. whatever the tire they will be on cragar soft 8's 15 x 8 with 4" of back spacing. and for tire size i'm thinking 32x 11.50. any advice would be great, thanks guys - cody Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darren Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 I have the X-terrains on my MJ. In the 35" flavor. Performance has been good and I've been impressed with how they've held up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 all-terrains and mud don't mix well. :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
codybutz Posted January 25, 2010 Author Share Posted January 25, 2010 ya i know they don't self clean at all. I do use the jeep to get to and from the trails and i'm worried at how well the mud tires will wear on the street. i would say the jeep is driven on the street and trails equally as much, and would like a happy medium.

DJM/78 Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 The AT . tires are also a much harder rubber compound , with more of a rough ride than the softer compounds . They will last you longer , but for more aggressive traction off road , mud , loose sand , ext. I would go with the BFG , mud terrains . plus a smoother ride . I am using the BFG AT"s now but I want a set of mud terrain's for off road use . However where I live, there is allot of pavement to rock roads, with pot-holes the size of a VW out here and they have held up great . I guess its just personal preference . :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 with a proper alignment and frequent rotations a quality mud tire should wear just fine. they just need a bit more attention. :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
