Best tires on the h3

RE: Best tires on the h3
I've got the Super Swamper Trxus MT 34"x12.5" These are HUGE tires and they are absolutely quiet on the highway, frankly they're just as quiet as my street tires.
I've run them in a little mud and it throws clods of mud about 50 feet in the air, excellent bite on rock and trails and I've been told these tires are the ultimate tire for snow and ice although I've not had the pleasure.
Too bad I don't have it with me this week. I'm up in Minneapolis this week and it's frikkin' COOOOOLLLLDDDDD. -16 right now with a wind chill of -37.
I've noticed when we talk about tires on this forum most either talk about 33's or 35's.. apparently many forget there are 34" tires out there.

Good timing for this thread. I'm getting ready to by some new tires and this is helping me see what the tires look like on the H3. I'm leaning towards the Cooper Discoverer STT's right now. Anybody have any experience with these? The biggest question is what size to get...33" or 35"!!!

IMO getting a 33 is a waste...you can clear 35's with zero rubbing, you gain ground clearance ad look 10x's better than 33's...only downside is you'll lose 2mpg or so...no big deal. Coopers are a good tire too, a guy in my bass club has them on his suburban and they are mean looking. I think they are slightly louder than the mtz's or the parnelli dirt gripz though.

The rims can have the optional beadlock rings for about $60 per tire. They come in chrome, black, red, etc.... I thought I wanted the beadlock rings but decided against it. Gunner45 has the chrome rings on his rig and the same tires. I think he went with 33's. My wheels are 34" with no lift.

Bead Locks secure the tire to the Rim so the beads don't break free with low tire pressure.
If you want high mileage tires you would should go with a P-Metric they will have a UTQG rating (UTQG rating is the hardness of the rubber, the higher the # the longer they last i.e. 500). Down side is the side walls are usually thinner, Offroad tires tend to have thicker sidewalls for less flex and don't have UTQG rating.
