Tyre help please!

Why can I not find 12.5" wide, 31" BF Goodrich tyres on tinternet? I can see them being driven around, but cannot buy them?

Do they just not sell them anymore?

I'm after M/T or A/T as I havent decided yet. May be I'm just not looking in the right place. Where do you buy your tyres?
cheers

I don't think I've seen that size.

31 x 10.5, 32 x 11.5 and 33 x 12.5

That would make a nice size. Tell us if you find any.

They may make these, but try to find a supplier that can get the 32" ones at a decent price!

Well,
I could be wrong, I used a online tyre size calculator to work things out. The tyre size is 325/60/15 which means just short of 31" tall, by 12.5" wide.

Silverline done me a set of 32's (Pirelli scorpion muds) on steel wheels for a great price last year. I think around a monkey for 4.

are the 32" expensive then?

Here is a BFG link http://www.bfgoodrich.co.uk/bfgoodri...204176001.html
I might have to call my local dealer to see if they can order them in.
You can see the 325/60's (which look fat by the way)

Next thing is I would need to find out how much lift the front needs to clear the bumpers on the turns

Thats not bad, around the same price for BFGs

The tyres wore quick, I wouldn't recommend them for road use.

I know muds wear quicker than A/Ts by what I have been told on here.. Do you reckon the Pirelli muds wear worse than the BFGs?
I've never owned a set of tyres for much longer than a year I'm very shocked at how long the BFG A/Ts have lasted. They are still legal, but the rubber is perishing!

Yup, but they were good in the mud.
I'm now trying Yokohama Geolander MT's, I'll see how they go.

I have phoned round a few places and they all quoted more for 32" A/T's than for 33" A/T's!!
