Guys,
New to Forum but not new to wheeling, I have been away for about 10 years and just bought a 1997 LX 450 that I want to set up as a Expedition Truck since I know how Amazing the Land Cruiser 80 Series are. I got a great deal on the LX because it needed tires and some general maintenance with that said the Michelin LTX's are 11 years old on her and in the stock size 275/70R16 there are few choices for replacement tires.
I wish I had the extra money for a lift right now ( future mod ) but I don't so wanted to see if there was a optional tire size I can look at the will still be ok for the stock suspension?? I plan on bumpers and a RTT at some point so not sure if I should be looking for load range " E " tires ??
Oh.... I guess I'm looking for a AT tire with good on and off road performance, the Cooper S/T Maxx has caught my eye..
Any direction would be appreciated!!!

Here she is the day I bought her !!!
