Smile Tires!!!!

What are guys running out there?

They'll be going on my daughters stock 99, Christmas present! I'm gonna put an all terrain on it. I'm gonna stay with the stock 225's? I was think'n about go'n with a 30x9.50 but she's commuting back and forth to college so I don't wanna kill the fuel mileage!

I've always been a fan on the Dueler A/T!

DONT stay stock!!!
dude, your in the wrong vehicle for economy!!! (no disrespec' sire!! )
.... that said... get at least a 235/75 and a 2"BB.
as for actual tire brands, ive ran my dura tracs for about a year and im happy with em. hard to beat in snow and they do a hell of a lot better in mud that any highway radial could ever dream. i can get 18+ on the pavement, still.

you wont notice a difference between stock and 30's regarding fuel mileage...

but for a good all around AT, id highly recommend hankook dynapro ATM's. they have an aggressive look, super quiet onroad, great longevity, excel offroad....just an awesome tire at a very reasonable price

No disrespect taken! She's getting about 20mpg and I'd like to keep it there. I know there not the best vehicle for mpg's, but its what she wanted as a 1st vehicle.

The plan is a 3'in with 30x9.50 in the future!
