It's time for me to change tires on my 03 - and I was wondering what tires are the preferred type available these days?

Thanks in advance,

All season - it's one of my 3 daily drivers in rotation

looking for good all weather performance- out of those choices- Thanks Guys!- which would seem the best?

I run sumitomo up front, nitto on rear. Very happy with the mismatch brand.

I run the Nitto NT555-G2 255/45-18 on the front and the Nitto NT555 265/50-18 on the rear. The only problem is Nitto stopped producing the 265/50-18. Same overall diameter as the OEM BFG's.
 
What brands are made in the USA?

My brother goes out of his way to get USA made tires for his cars. Any available for Marauder sizes?
 
Tires

Are Marauder tire sizes already obsolete? Or just the manufacturers mentioned here? Almost afraid to drive it now. In Florida long term due to 'family issues'. Going home later this week to check on my house, pick up my mail and return with my Marauder....

Sizes are not obsolete, just are not 50 choices for them, only a d all number of tire compsnies make stock sizes. The stock front size is very common with many choices, the stock rear is less common this why some mix and match brands

All tire companies have plants in third world countries, hard to say which are made here. Cooper tire based in Findlay, Ohio for exsmple

Ive been using firestone wide oval (now they do not make rears) and since that happened ive worked my way over to the firestone indy 500 summer tires.
used with 8.5-9 / 32 they sell on ebay for about 50 bucks each for fronts.

United tire on ebay had a bunch of new take off 235 50 18 for 110.00 for 2, so i bought a few sets and have them on 2 of my cars. What a awesome tire so far!!

Buy what ever tires you want, just dont buy walmart tires. CHEAP AND THIN!
