Now that my 90 is up on it's paws I'm looking to replace the very old Cooper Discoverer STT 265/76/16s that came when I bought it. I'm planning to go with a narrower tire like a 7.50/16 or 235/85 and need 5. I may also switch from alloys to a steel rims at the same time. I'm 95% or more on streets but I do go through dirt, flooded fields, mud, sand, snow on occasion and don't want to sacrifice traction when needed. Road noise is a concern as well. I've found the Discoverers to be fairly quiet on the road and quite capable off road for what I need. so I'm thinking of buying them again in the narrower size. I would appreciate reviews from your experiences with them or other brands/models in narrower sizes. There's a good deal on BFG 7.5/16 right now. 5 for $795 shipped from 4wheelparts.
I've read through the tire threads on here and the other forums but most are pretty old and new tire models aren't compared. Thought it might be useful to get an update.
