Works for you - dual purpose tires

[jaypetermen]

Planning on doing a Scrambler build like this one.

They state that they are running Firestone Military 4.50 X 18” on the rear and 4.00 X 19” on the front. I would guess they are going for the look more than the purpose.

I want this look, however I would like a tire that uses modern materials and is safe on all street conditions. My expectation for off road would be a gravel roads , if even that.

The Firestone Military tires may fit this bill, just trying to get a confirmation and other modern options. Consider some of the following

Bridgestone Trail Wing (TW152 style)
Dunlop Trailmax (65T style)
Firestone Military
Heidenau K60
Shinko 700
Shinko 244

I am basically looking for the equivalent motorcycle tire performance to the Bridgestone Dueler A/T REVO 2 that I have been running on my truck for the last ten years. They have a great ride, very quiet and stick to the road like glue even on wet roads.

 Your post landed in the right spot check Slicks tred above
I was looking for the same look and needs the 700 was best I thought checked most of your choices for myself last month,and comments were 3 1/2 on average some high 5s though.







Shinko 700
very nice look
made noise
good ; wet and gravel
               









But went with Kenko that had mostly 4 aver.rating but like me the low $ was the main factor
