Alright boys/gals. I am in the need of some tires here soon. Problem is I am out of work right now and am going to school full time. I am looking to get a full time summer job to pay for tires.
Here is my situation. I have a 04' with the 5.4 I have a Gryphon with a 93 Custom tune. I'm averaging 16.6-17 mpg right now. Which is really great. That is me babying it and that tune. The tune has helped my MPGs a lot.
Well I want to get a set of aggressive set of tires (hell who doesn't). But looking at the prices of the BFG KM2s, Toyo Open Countrys, etc... are expensive
I really can't justify spending ridiculous amount of money on those tires, when I off-road only 10% of the time. In the hunting season I go in some swampy areas at time but I haven't had many problems with my bald tires now so I don't see that being a problem.
What would y'all recommend for a good affordable tire, I wanna go for a 33x12.5x18 or 295/70/18 somewhere like that
I just want something I'm gonna get good mileage for my money. (longevity)
****I am not gonna do Treadwrights, just wanna get that off the discussion
