New tires mabe 32"s, what do you guys recommend?

Find a Discount Tire Center or America's Tire in your area, get some General Grabbers. Purchase the warranty. They will warranty the tire even off road. The Generals dont have the toughest side wall but we ran the crap out of those tires with minimal punctures. They work great in the mud and every where else we ran them, rocks (only place we had any side wall probs), sand, loose stuff. Most of the terrain you have there in the deserts (East of you) that I can remember isnt really sharp anyway.

Corral canyon is my favorite playground. Last time I ran general grabbers when i had my 01' Silverado, one of the tires got poked by a rock and popped. General grabber is a great tire, but not for the rocks.

When I had my Jeep, I had Goodyear mt/r(they were the best for rocks), bfg a/t and m/t(both pretty good) and Procomp Xterrains(pretty damn good in the rocks). Gotta have some good sidewalls when going a 3+ miles into the mountains I appreciate the advice, because grabbers are pretty decently priced tires.

Thats why I suggest America's Tire, You cant beat the warranty.

I ended up finding five goodyear mt/r 33x12.5 15's 70% tread left, on aluminum american racing wheels for $400.00!! I might just go for it, even though they will rub. That is too good of a deal to pass up! Looks like i might be getting a lift soon. 4" rough country mabe.

Here's my blazer with 33x13.5-16 LTB's on 16x10 wheels. I had to trim the fenders a little. I run 33" at's on the street, but didn't need any trimming.

I love the LTB's, I don't have a locker front or rear and they were awsome

Your K5 looks great!! I like the color of your stock rallys!! Really sets it off!

Defitnitly going the 33's route. I don't know what I was thinking going 31's. Now I am looking at 35's!! I may paint my stock rallys flat black.

I won't do 35's though, it would kill my rear end and tranny. I only have 3.08 gears

That is winter/artic metallic blue in the little touchups cans from AutoZero (zone).
