    I put a new set of Dunlop Rovers on yesterday, 265/75/16 on my Dragon. Smooth ride, little to no road noise and priced around $600 mounted for the set. Could have gone a little bigger but wanted to keep it at that price range.

    Big tires

    Any mods needed to go up to a 265 75 16? I have no lift or cladding mods. Will this size work without rubbing or complications? Notice any change in mpg? Thank you!

    I'm running Firestone Destinations right now (33x12.50 R15's). It's a very good tire but probably not aggressive enough for your taste (not mine either but it's what I needed at the time). I'll be going more aggressive next time I need new skins but I haven't decided on what yet. I've always been a fan of the Mickey Thompsons but I hear they don't wear well.

    Probably these:
