Andy FitzGibbon Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 Other than Swampers and General Grabber AT's, what else is out there for 14" tires? I mean in terms of actual off road, light truck tires, not snow tires. Thanks, Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheLoyale Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 Well there is MaxxisBighorn tires, 27" overall diamater (Still on a 14" rim) and those are super aggressive! but your gonna need a lift for 27" unless your gonna hack and hack. Just my $0.02 -Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greenley Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 Maxxis Bighorn(link) Those seem to be the only M/T available in 27x14. It's a shame the Kumho Ventures are off the market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They used to make the BFG All-Terrains in 14s aswell, Not no more -Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy FitzGibbon Posted August 23, 2009 Author Share Posted August 23, 2009 Thanks for the tip on the Bighorns. I see that Maxxis also makes the Buckshot mudders in 27-8.50X14. They look slightly more aggressive than the Bighorns. I was disappointed to see that BFG dropped the 14" size from both the AT and MT line. So far the Generals are cheapest at $86 each from Tire Rack. Anybody know of others? Thanks, Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoobieDoo Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 I believe that Wallyworld dropped their 14's, but the Uniroyal Liberators are still available in a 225/70R14. For the money and daily driving, I'd go with the AT2's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeamCF Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 Firestone Destination A/T, they come in 14" sizes. 225/70/14 measures 26.5" I'm running the Falken Radial AP. They are an RV tire that has a mild AT tread. Kind of a 4 row knobby type thing. Not as many plies as the better A/Ts and such but only about $80 a pop and I love them so far. Mine are 205/75/14 (26.1" tall). They come in all kinds of bigger sizes to. Only problem is they typically are a special order from the factory.

They look slightly more aggressive than the Bighorns. The smallest size i've seen in the Maxxis Buckshot was 29", so i didn't mention it. Tread pattern very similar to BFG/Khumo M/T. You shouldn't be disappointed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheSubaruJunkie Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 A couple tires I wish they still made: Kumho Venture MTs & The Cooper Discoverer STT's. Both tires used to be available in a 205/75R14 size which was about 26.1" and worked perfectly on most mildly lifted subies (take a look at Greenleys ride for instance). When I bought my Kumho's I was told I got the last set TireRack.com had in stock and was not planning on ordering anymore. Then I heard Kumho pulled that size, but then re-released it and then pulled it again. Maybe do some homework and find a used set or a shop somewhere who might have old stock on hand. When I bought my Coopers (about 6 years now) I knew they were pulling that tire size soon. So i called around to all the local cooper tire dealers asking about that tire & size, and lucked out. I found a shop in West Sacramento that had 3 in the back they could not sell and gave me a killer deal on them along with ordering 1 more to make a complete set. Both tires worked extremely good off-road and shared the same dog-bone style tread pattern. The kumho's did feel stiffer and appear to be a better overall tire but both were still awesome off-road!

cmiller Posted September 3, 2009 Share Posted September 3, 2009 The TSL's look pretty good to me, seen a few subies running them and they seemed to do well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
