Thanks for the plug on my website!
From what folks have reported to me, and from my observations from other posts...
1) Michelin 900r16XZL if staying stock size, Michelin 1100r16XL if going a bit taller.
Both are radial and will require radial tubes.
Ones below seem to get used at about the same rate:
2) STA Superlugs if staying stock size and type (bias ply tire)
3) Power King Super Traction, GoodYear Extra-Grip, Co-Op Grip Spurs... all pretty much the same tire, made by the same folks and available from a variety of sources/names. Stock size bias ply.
4) Super Swampers - Bias or Radial, close to stock size or larger. Got a good following, but they wear more than choice 2 or 3 and cost more than they do but not as much as the 1) choice of Michelins...
There are multiple pages on my website with rim data, tire info, tire photos, etc.
Good luck and let us know what you purchase,
C. Garbee
