RE: New Tires?
Quinnman alot of jeeps that come in get the Wrangler RT/S
I heard good reviews for the on/off road of these tires...
I been offroading on my radials...and it handled the mudd fine untill I got stuck, so I think radials are mostly pavement tires.

You know what I appologize for jumping down your throat like that . Didn't mean anything by, I just deal with tool bags all day on other forums and I keep forgeting that this site has a different setting. Thats fine that you work for a tire shop and after you said that I spoke to someone at tire rack regarding this and they assured me that tire was correct and gave me the speach they sell millions of tire a week.. blah blah blah... With that said, Dory you have alot of tires that people here have reccomended to ya... Good luck picking one out. Just make sure you do your home work on the tire just to make sure you are getting the best tire for the right price. You get what you pay for.

Problem is the tires they sell are horrible when trying to mount them!
The beads dont seal correctly on a lot of their tires, one of my coworkers actually blew the tire crushing his ribs.
HAving to fill the tire to 200+ psi to get the bead to pop is a dangerous task! We have sent many complaints to Tire Rack for this...

My Blazer came with a new set of Mastercraft Avenger G/T's. They have been pretty decent in any type of weather... snow was okay as long as I was light on the throttle.

Are these a good type of tire? Radial Rover RVXT is Dunlop's Off-Road All-Terrain light truck tire designed to combine on-road comfort with off-road traction.

They're a good highway tire, do not too bad on wet roads... But they suck in the snow, and are definitely NOT suited for ice.
I had BF Goodrich Premiers on my beater 2WD S10, and they did pretty good... Never got stuck until I took the sand bags out, lol.
And as for "passenger tire" vs. "LT tire" as long as the load rating is high enough you will NOT have any problems.
However, a passenger tire, generally isn't as "durable" when off-roading.
Costco is a good place to go for tires... My BFG A/T's were only $170 a tire.
I think I got all 4 Premiers on my S10 for less than $400 installed.
