Tires tires and tires!

So I need new tires pretty bad, my fronts are bald. Plan is to swap the new rear tire/wheels up front and get some nice tires for the rear.

I am looking at MT ET streets, but I am confused as to how Jegs has em advertised. For a 9.5 rim they only offer 315s, and I thought I couldn't run 315s on a 9.5 rim?

Yea, I messed up and thought they went in order of rim sizes, my bad.

Does MT make a 275/50R17?

No, but M&H does.



Why do you need a 28" tall tire?

Don't really, just curious.

M&H better than MT?

Matt, if your looking to get MT's for cheap, give Mike a call at WS6store, he will more than likely throw in free shipping and may be able to get you a few bucks off each tire too. I ended up getting my Nittos for $270 shipped to the door(Yes, I know you don't want them). Even if it's not listed on their website, just give him a call with the part number and he'll be able to get it for you.
