Sahara Tire Options?
Hey Guys,
So I'm going to pick up a set up stock Sahara Wheels and tires and had a few questions....For those of you who have taken your wrangler off road, do the Bridestones do well? Also, with the wheels being so large, if there any options for tires with a bit more of an aggressive pattern because all I am seeing is on road/off road options on tire rack, etc.....
any input would be greatly appreciated....
Thanks!

Check out these, Goodyear Duratrac 295 / 65 / 18
Got them this spring at Tire Rack, local tire store installed them and the guys there drooled all over them.
Used them on pretty muddy and rocky trails in the Maine mountains. So far very very nice, never stuck unless high sided, no side wall blow outs.
Stock tires will get you to the local tire store pretty good if it isn't too wet out.

The Duellers are okay for off-roading...the drawback on them is the side-wall....very easy to puncture the sidewalls with sticks or rocks.
Option that you could look for 18" wheels is the Cooper STT - Personal experience is just about as good as the Toyo M/T!
275/65R18 (33.4x11.0R18)
305/60R18 (32.7X12.0R18)
325/60R18 (33.5x13.3R18)
325/65R18 (34.8x13.5R18)
Discount Tire sells these tires for a good price! I have a set of STT's on my Jeep and they have worn very well and have been awesome for off-roading! Also, picked up a set for my Diesel switched over from my usual Toyo M/T due to prices.

Bridgestone Dueler a/t ran them tell I got my new wheels and tires. I was very suprised
at how well the Dueler did. For a street loooking tire I was not sure at first. Now I would say run them tell you need to change them.
