My friens shop is about to return a set of these tires, whats the likely hood of fitting these on my 95 disco with a 3" lift? I dont care about trimming, cutting , hacking , whatever. I was going to use the stock rims, and see how long i can last without spacers too. Im used to my old 4 runner, fit 33 12.5's on there stock.

Master Ho say:
"The man with stock tires is not a happy man, there is much desire in his heart; the man with 245/75's is on the road to enlightenment but still has not fulfilled his destiny; the man with 235/85's (or larger) is the truly enlightened man and walks in the garden of the wise."

Sorry Ho, Steve made me do it.

john,

11.5" wide tires will bite you. besides, baja claws are very soft, and wear fast on the blacktop.

a friend of mine bought a set of 35" for his jeep, and a year later they are the same height as my 33" BFG MTs.

Of course, you will have to get some sparkely chrome shocks to match those bajas. Don't waste your time and money with MThompsons. How about the 32x11.50x16 TSL SX's. That way you can make fun of your buddy's rig.

I know we're no longer talking about these but Baja Claws are very good - I'd put them between TSLs and the Booggers. Also, the 35's are really 33" even when new, so if peter's budy's tires were 33" after a year I'd say they lasted very well.

Mud Terrains it is then, i have run both the BF's and the ProComps on my 4-runner with no problem. this was just a "good" deal in regards to the normal price of those tires

Milan,

my 33s were also a year old, so i guess his 35" claws were in a ballpark of 32.5.

like Jp mag said once, if you need a bitchin' 33" tire, get a 35" baja claw.

john - probably, since then BFG said no to all good deals on their tires. bastards...
