The Stovebolt Site Forums The Shop Area General Truck Talk Mud/Snow Radial with Old School Look

For all you guys and gals out there that have looked for an old school mud / snow tire with the look of a bias but in a radial, I found them. They are the Wild Spirit Radial TXR II! Google these tires (sorry I'm a techtard and couldn't post a link) and you'll see what I'm talking about. They get great reviews on snow ice and mud. You can even get them studded like the old bias tires. I'm going with the 255 85R 16s on my '57 4x4 burb. The size mentioned above is the thinner version (about 10") tire with an overall diameter of 33" (just a little taller than a 285), and will easily fit on my stock steel wheel to give you that overall old school truck look. I was looking at a tire store yesturday at the 285s but they just looked to wide. As I was leaving bummed out I caught them out of the corner of my eye and about wet myself. They were thin tall and aggressive looking all that I was out for. When I get them on the "beast" and figure out how to post pics or a link ( help me please) I 'll show you you what I'm so excited about. Sorry for carrying on,
