I've made a decision on tire size and model. I've also given him a name. Donkey. His new shoes will be a set of BFG All Terrain KO2 245/75/16.

My question is would be be foolish for putting 10 ply Dynapros on an R50? I've also heard 10 ply hurts off road performance quite a bit. I don't really have a full understanding of the trade offs if I get a 10 ply

I'm considering the Dynapro in 10 ply which seems stupid but the others are Toyo Open Country AT2 and Goodyear Duratracs are only 4 dollars per tire more than the Toyos but I've heard mixed reviews for on road use on the Duratracs that end up chipping over rocks and can hum pretty bad on...

I picked up my 2001 SE that has 124k on it and is super clean. It lived in Texas until 2011 and has since been in MA but garaged. Salt state recall inspection had stage 2 fiber glass kit on one side and just an undercoat on the other. I was wondering if I should undercoat/rust proof or if that...

So what is the consensus regarding best bang for buck tire and availability? Hankook DynaPro ATM 10 ply? How much more are the 10 ply over the 2?

I'm looking for bang for buck but also am not the type to skimp out and get something like a Kelly tire but I think the BFG AT are overpriced and I've had a set before. We get a LOT of snow here.

So I've been looking for all terrain tires for my soon to be lifted R50. I decided on Hankook Dynapro AT-M given I had heard some good things and they are $121 ea instead of BFG All Terrains are $181 ea. I'm in New England and plan to do some mild venturing but my buddy is trying to convince me...

I can run 245/75/16 on stock height, I had them on my 04 that wasn't lifted. I'm wondering between saving money on the tires and not doing any actual crazy off reading if that would be a better bet than going 265/75. I'm in New England and while I'm not afraid to get it dirty I don't plan on...

So should I go with a different size for the OME 1.75? I want a plug and play tire set up without rubbing or issues.

Excellent. Thanks! Obviously if I decide to get an OME lift I will want bigger tires but can't get 265/75/16 to fit without the lift. Is that OME lift with stock sized tires going to be a mess to drive until I get new tires?

This is my last pathfinder that I had 245/75/16 and no lift on. I removed running boards and mud flaps.

That's the thing, I live in Massachusetts. I can see myself going out and finding trouble if I had the lift, I'd probably be more excited to drive it with a lift but I don't have any locations that I know I'd go. I'm in a transition of getting back into how I grew up which means camping and all...

So I just picked up a 2001 Pathfinder with 124k on it and I had all the plans to get new tires, lift it etc etc but I'm wondering at this point if I should even bother with a lift or not. The truck is my daily driver and I'm a big outdoors kind of guy and would wheel it on trails, the woods...

The OME options confuse me, do I want struts or do I not want struts? If I went with the $5xx.00 no strut option would I just use what's on there now or would I need to get Bilsteins or something? I also don't know who would install the lift or if it's a cheap install a shop can do. I'm afraid...

I was thinking about getting an OME lift kit, not body but suspension but I don't know what I should go with and if I did the 1.75 lift or the 3.5 lift what tire size would be best. I'm going for this minus the brush guard

Does anyone know what size tire is the biggest without rubbing on that stock 16 inch wheel?

I haven't posted in a while, I used to have a 2004 SE that I sold in 2013 but now I'm back in the R50 game with a gem of a 2001 that I found. 2001 SE with 124,000 miles. I bought it off the original owner who was an F16 Pilot stationed in San Antonio. The vehicle was in Texas and South Carolina...

No it's not... 2nd gen Ford Explorer 4.0... Cheap and prone to catastrophic failure (transmission) 2nd gen Ford Explorer 5.0... Cheap and prone to no catastrophic failures unless someone never changes the oil or rust takes over... It's almost a guarantee that a Subaru will need a head gasket...

I thought trailblazers were drivetrain ticking time bombs like any other GM SUV or Truck? At $2-3,000 they're obviously going to have higher miles too

I said none of that... That was a massive conclusion jump. Just because I said I wouldn't be doing my own valve stem seal work it means I don't do any work? When did I say I expect nothing to go wrong? When did I say any of that really? I said cheap as in I paid $2,000 for my gem of a 5.0...
