metric equivelent of 35x12.5x16 MT/r's

team510 · Mar 18, 2005

my buddy has a 04 Chevy HD and im tryin to find him some MT/r's cause hes been runnin some trxxxus mt tires and their lame and wore out hella quick and are all around crappy tires. and hes kinda lame and wants a cool looking tire cause he doesnt really offroad much at all. ya i know, fuckin poser. anyways i think i got him talked into the wranglers but i need to find some that will fit. and on tirerack.com they dont have the 35x12.5x16 that i need. is there a metric equivelent that they offer? and how could i convert to metric sizes without havin to ask you guys next time?

thanks

A 35x12.50x16 would be a 318/76R16....but ofcourse that size doesnt exist so you would need to get the closest thing. A 315/75R16 would be a 35x12.4x16..so that is what you are gonna want to look for.

Use this...http://www.dakota-truck.net/TIRECALC/tirecalc.html

Also forgot to mention...Apparently the Truxus MT's are great on mid-sized trucks, they just cant handle the weight of full-sized trucks, thats where everyone has problems with them.

well, he cant biatch, those tires are gonna wear quick too. i had a 3/4ton and put load range e tires on em, seemed to do a bit better than the Ds, but whatever. i also wouldnt waste my money on the mtrs for the street, but what do i know?!
the 315/75s are pretty much 35x12.5. thats what i used to run...

well what would you guys suggest i tell him to get? and i already know he'll say no to AT's...i know i know. hes doing mainly all street driving but like i said...hes a poser and wants the offroad look.

Suggest the BFG AT. I always thought they looked nice on full size trucks, and if he says no, that's his choice, let him do it on his own.
