the tires i really wanted are on national backorder for 3-4 weeks, and i need tires by friday, so here's the question...
i got a 3" body lift and a tad bit of crankin on the ol' bars...i was gonna fit a 33x12.5x16 on my stock 16x8 rims in the trxus sts radial. but now im forced into almost any other tire and was looking into the pro-comp xterrain's...anyone on here have a set they care to comment on, milage, noise ect... also will the 305 70r 16 fit with little to no rubbing?

What tires were you gonna get? What is your use gonna be? Street queen for look or are you actually gonna off road it?
I myself am looking at the firestone destination MT's and I am going with them. New design and good feedback.
BFG over rated. Goodyears are not what they claim to be. I dont care for the x terrains or boggers or swampers.
When I go off roading or on a trip I travel lots of miles at times. So ride is a concideration but not over traction. I want good traction off road but again I dont want to be bounced around.
Just my experience, I wheel with lots of different people running different tires on different rigs.

Man I wish there was an edit feature here.
Ummm I did not think you could get 16" tires in a standard size (33x12.5x16). I think your best bet is a 285x75x16. Anything bigger I think you will have rub problems more than you want.
I have never run that tire you mention but a Dakota guy in our off road group runs them and likes them ok. He got them a few months back and has run them in Sand Snow and mud.
He said on road they are not bad. Not sure on milage and stuff.
