What tires are you guys running?

Leadfoot281

What?! Me worry?
My current tires are OEM spec BFGoodrich and have good depth with no weath checking, cracks etc. Unfortunately they're 16 years old.

It looks like the stock BFG rear tire is no longer in production. What brand is everyone currently running?
 
Depends if you run summer only or winter. Nitto G2 summer only. Continental Extreme Contact DW06 are great year round tires. I run them on my daily. Hankook has OEM sizes ,I forget the model
 
I know about the Hankooks. I didn't know if they were any good. My MM is summer use only.

Looks like Nitto doesn't have OEM sizes.
 
Last year I got the Continental DWS06 in OE sizes. Very nice and seem to be quiet. My impression would be an unfair assessment because the tires they replaced were 12 years old. They look great and seem to be quite grippy.

I got them at Tire Rack delivered free with 2 years of road hazard.
 
Recently put the DWS06 tires on the Sl500. They are good. Put Coopers on the MM a couple of years ago. I regret not putting the Conti's on the MM.

I've bought tires from Discounttiredirect.com and been happy with their service. Nitto used to have Motivo's in stock sizes. Have them on the SB and they have held up well.
 
I had been running on Cooper RS3a since 2016/2017, but several months ago went with Falkens for the rears as they were $60 cheaper for the pair. Haven't had any reason to complain about 'em so far...
 
Thanks for the responses guys. I found Nittos in stock sizes at Tire Rack and got 'em delivered for little over $500.

I wanted to go for the Continentals but figured they would probably rot off the wheels before I wore 'em out. It just didn't make sense to spend big on tires for the extremely limited use they'll see. I'll post up a few thought on 'em when I get them installed.
 
Nitro may still make batches of the rear Motivos every so often. Last time I checked they were available (limited production).
 
I run Nitto NT555G2 255/45 on the front and NT555 265/50 (no longer available) on the rear. Same overall diameter as the stock 235/50 & 245/55 OEM's but two sizes wider.
 
I just bought a new set of Nitto Motivos...

235/50zr18s from TireRack for $122.33 each

255/55/zr18s from Priority Tire for $118.99 each plus $15 off using discount code BACK24.

This is about the best deal you will find on tires for your Marauder.
 
I got a set of the Continental ExtremeContact DWS 06 Plus, stock front & 255 rear, with a decent rebate on Tire Rack..

I like them a lot so far - I'm pretty sure they can out-handle the rest of the car ;)
