which tires are MEATY?
i mean, ones that have big sidewalls (for rim protection)...

i heard BFG KDW-2s are meaty...
what else?

 

Apparently my goodyear eagle f1 gsd3's are suposed to have a sidewall that protects rims... but I don't know if it actually works, and I don't plan on testing it.

KDW2's are. I have em and love em!

 

KDW2, RE050

Stay from Toyos & Nittos b/c they have thin sidewalls

 

What size wheels are you running? I have 245/275-40-19 Hankook Ventus K107's on 19x8.5, 19x9.5 inch wheels. The sidewalls are taller and the ride quality is much improved over the 35 series Toyo's I had before.

 

KDW2 > RE050, or the other way around?

 

planning to run 19X9.5 and 10.5 with 245/35 and 275/35, but i saw your ride and 40s don't seem to bad...

 

toyo T1Rs

 

i run 245 45 18 Goodyear RSA's all round and I love them. More MEAT! They ride much better.

 

toyo t1-r's

 

toyo t1r's are meaty?

i never thought so...

 

Toyos are fatties. you have to stretch a 255 on a 10.5 for it to look right.

say no to swampers!!

 

I have Falken FK-452, they are meaty in the sense they have a tread rating of 300. 245/35/19 front 255/40/19 rear on oem rims. Fits nice and flush, rides not as quiet as I had hoped.

 

I'm running the BFG KDW2...extremely meaty tires

 

any tire above 17/18 is gonna have noise you just can't avoid. they're performance tires. it's what they do. also, yes, the new Falken FK452's aren't as thin as the older model, but they still offer a better than fattie look/clearance level.
