Nice! You're gonna like them. I'm glad you picked that size rather than the 245/70. Good call.

I'm looking at the same tires. I was also looking at the Khumo Road Ventures, but the Firestones look mighty nice.

Fdems on the NE section has em. I actually went to his house to eye ball em. He has 235/75/16 and I liked em alot. He has the stock steelies. So I furgured I would go to firestone store and eyeball the 245/75/16's and they looked REALLY NICE. So I went to work and went to tirerack.com and porcessed my plastic spending options LOL....

Can't wait to see em on my Moabs!

I am getting mine put on tomorrow (Destination A/T 245/70/16) on the new MOABs. I would've liked to get 245/75's but seeing as I'm looking as some rubbing as it is I opted for the smaller size. I'll post some picks after I get back home.

501 _ Looking good man.
How come you did not go with the 245/75's?

How is your lift doing? Get any setteling yet? Mine settled only about less than 1/4 " Will re gain when I slap on my 30.7" boots

Thanks, I went with the 255/70's for the width, they are about as tall as the 245/75's (30.5") but a little wider.

I've lost about a 1/4 too, I was told it should settle about 1/2" hopefully not though. It still rides great. Some day (but not soon) I may move up to a OME lift, but so far I'm really happy with it.

Can't wait to see some pictures of your new meats!!

I love mine in the 245/70 P-Metric size. Next time, along with doing the pinch weld, I will go to the 245/75 LT-size. Trying to save a little gas right now though. :wink:
