235/85/16's?

Anyone running these not on a dually? I'm a big fan of the pizza cutters for many reasons (appearance, MPG, cost..)

I bought a 91 Chevy 4x4 3/4T Extra cab today as a summer toy, and it needs some tires.

I'd rather not lift it (much, anyway).

Anyone have pics of any FS truck with a similar setup?

Thanks!

Yup! Just about every single Land Cruiser or Land Rover on the entire continent of Africa, including mine. :)

The 7.50x16 is arguably the most common tire size in the Third World.

I put them on my Tacoma in the fall and they have done well all winter. I will let everyone know how they do in the dirt. BFG A/T.

This was the stock tire size on F250s and probably F350s thru much of the 80s and 90s. Here is my '91 F250.

I have switched over most all in the fleet to them. The latest tire being tested (low bid) is the Firestone Destination MT 235/85-16. I brought two dozen sets into my warehouse.

yeah that is the stock size on my f350. I'm running goodyear wrangler silent armors. the price was good and the tread wear warranty is great considering the weight they are carrying even unloaded.
