Still looking for tires...how about theses?

[GsxrMike]

Found these for $300. Its 6 hour drive round trip to get them though. They call for a 16x10 rim but all I have is 16x8 or 16x7? Will this work? Does anybody know how wide the H1 rims are? (8 bolt bead lock) Do these look like they would be worth it or not? I am going to use them mostly for mud. They are 36x13.5x16...

the tread doesnt look very deep though...not sure how long they will last. but for beaters it may work for you.

I don't know for sure, but ccould those cross bars between the inner treads be wear bars. If so, they may not be long for use. THey still might give some time for abuse though!

I would not pay more than $150 $200 for those.

I have heard that the iroks don't do well in the mud. There was a thread somewhere talking about the bigger sizes doing better because of thread depth, though.

Full depth tread works wonders in the mud. $300 tires, but are they going to give you traction with that tread that's left? For mud, those are going to be like slicks. I would pass.

Like the Bird said, 'Iroks aren't the best for mud'.

the H1 rims are 16.5 diameter not 16's

An 7-8" wide rim would work good on those, and I would prefer that width over a 10" wide (I run 8" wide rims on my 15.5" wide Swampers).

But in any case, I would not pay $300 for those tires even if they were next door to me. Those tires are almost worn out (maybe 25% tread??) as the center lugs are already down the cross-ties. A couple of years ago I paid $550 and drove 45 minutes away to buy a set of 39.5 Iroks that had still had 90% tread left

I'll have to agree with everyone here and say dont get them. The tread that is left will do you no justice. I had a set 0f 41" iroks and they where not the best for mud, but air them down and they'll crawl over almost anything. keep lookin.

Alright guys. Thanks for the suggestions. I'm going to wait and get some 39.5 x 11 boggers when I get closer to getting the body back on.
