Nick,<br> If you are going to street drive a large portion and some trail then the 12.5x35 BFGmuds are hard to beat. They hold up decent on the road and go fairly well off road. If you are east of the Miss. river contact National Tire and Wheel in Wheeling WV, call after 11 and ask for Stid. If you are west then 4wph is the best(shipping cost to factor in-both situations). As for rims-I personally like the American Racing Bajas-they are finished on both sides and won't "bleed" like the Eagles which are only finished on one side. rim size-much debate-the 15x8 will "stand the tire up" more and are less likely to come off the bead when aired down, the 15x10's will put more rubber on the road/obsticle, but will come off the bead with out beadlocks when aired down. Lastly if you are mainly off road I liked the 12.5x35 Swamper ssr's. They grip VERY well but are soft and wear quickly on the road.<br>HTH,<br>Karl Bradley<br>'66/'77
