Re: Tire Question
This is the Mutt that's on Ebay right now and I really like those tires. Not sure what brand they are?

Re: Tire Question
That is a nice looking rugged tire, befitting of a Mutt! I will try to find out what kind they are. Thanks Mr. D. I saw that add on E but was looking at the mutt so close did not see the tires

Re: Tire Question
Am using a set of Cooper Discovery LT 215 -85-R16 radials on my Mutt for about 5 years. They are so much quieter and of course provide what I think is better traction than NDCCs.
Incidentally I found them on two new Encores that were for sale at the time.

Re: Tire Question
They are rough looking tires but they also look like bias ply tires which means flat spots when cold and rough ride.

And yes, the right front is backwards.

Re: Tire Question
I agree with Rick, they look like old bias-ply snow tires to me...
