Tires

Rick
i remember talking to you about your baja belted tires before. I like the tread and they seem like more of an all terrain tread then a mud. I remember you saying that they are loud on the road. Are they a farely soft tire? Im curious in how they wear on the road. Also how much are they compared to the BFG mud? I want an aggressive tire, but at the same time something that can get a little mileage out of. I know the BFG mud people are getting alot of road miles out of them.
Thanks
Or you can email me back at svtexplorer@aol.com

Baja Belted Tires

They are fast wearing on the road. Fair/medium loudness on the road. I switched to AT Dunlops for the road so that they would not wear out so fast. Don't know how they compare in price though.
