Title: Big street rubbers
Post by: Jthomas on February 11, 2014, 02:59:35 AM
I'm sure this has been asked a million times, so I'll ask once more. Who makes tires 37-38" road friendly, And offer them in 16.5 rim. Prefer them to be cheap

I look online but everything is metric now, so I have no idea how large they actually are.

I was just gunna burn up the rubbers I have now on the street, but I want to go to a smaller tire.

goodyear made them 37x12.50x16.5 I had a set and liked them but they looked smaller. I had a couple of sets of tsl radials and loved them! 37x12.50x16s ran them for 6 years on a f350

Not looking for a set right this second. I'll have to do some shopping.

Only problem is, I only have a cell phone, so browsing the web is difficult. My phone only shows like 30% of the links that you can see on a PC.

So unless it's on a dealers web page. I have a hard time finding anything
