Hilarious.....I just bought my 4 year old girl a 70cc quad (chinese), but I don't think she will be ready for a 2-wheeler for some time even though I would perfer it. Never been a quad guy myself.....I'll stick with my YZ426F for a while.

If you do offroad the truck frequently then id stay in the Interco Line. Super Swamper offers the TSL's in a radial version that are great tires.

BUT IMO i think a set of DENMAN GROUND HAWGS would be a great tire choice. They are probably the longest lasting mud tire ever designed, they will actually dry rot before you wear though them

I actually just got the truck and would like to take it off road but here in Rockland County where I just moved I do not know any spots to do so. I would like to stay at the least with 38 inch maybe more and I would say I will probably be doing more street driving then anything

I actually dont do any off roading yet, I just moved to Rockland county and dont know any spots to get off road yet. I will probably be doing more street driving unfortunately.

well for street driving id say Toyo Open Country MT's, BFG KM2's, PRO COMP EXTREME AT.

The Ground Hawgs would still be good choice, they ride smooth and last long. Then you are ready if you do hit some trails.

For sure the rust worries me the frame is solid and I am going to wire wheel it and POR15 it , the body I am guessing I will have to fine a dead f150 and swap the bodys or find someone that is really good and can replace the metal.

Trimble I was thinking the Yoko's too how big do you think I could fit under there I am sure 40's would fit no problem.. Got snow up here in New City NY and mud tires suck in the snow on tar!

Any recomendations for the rust issue and the street tires Im going to look at the Yokos

40's will fit but also cause some issues. Id say stay in the 38" range.

Im dont know much about snow tires, but the GEOLANDERS (SPLL) are great tires

were do you get POR15

Thanks I definitely think I will take a look at the tires you have, look sweet and if you said they last that is what I need but I still like to venture off whenever I see a trail but I havent found anything serious enough out here to go all out off road tires. The POR15 I will be getting from my friend that owns a body shop but I have to go back into brooklyn to get it, any other suggestions where to order.
