Which Tire For 315's Out Back???
 
So I'm really undecided on which of these to get. What is your personal experience with them? They will be on a pretty much daily driver. I'm aware that the Nitto's run small but i LOVE their tread pattern. The BFG's will probably need more banging out of the fenders which is no problem and I really don't know much on these tires. I'll be runnin TTII's (17X9.5) (17X11) as well if that means anything. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

the Nitto will last much longer than the BFG

BFG's have more grip and less tread life.
Nitto's are much better in the rain.

since you are lowered i would go with the nittos thats what i am running with no rubbing issues.

nitto, you will go through the BFGs wayyyy to fast.

ok i think its unaminous.... nitto it is, thats what I was orginally going with but then saw the BFG's and didn't know much about 'em. Thanks everyone!

You guys helped me decide what rear tires to get also. Thanks a lot. I am putting 17x11 TT2s in the rear with stock ride height. These shouldn't have any rubbing or fitment issues, correct?

IMJ Jan 19, 2006 06:15 AM

i am running tt2's lowered and i dont have any rubbing or fitment issues.

BFG'S burn out in no time. They hook hard though. Never had nitto's.

I'd recommend street tires (GSD3s) for a daily but if you insist on DRs get the Nittos. I just went through 2 sets of 315 BFGs, they dont last long.
