Good road tires for a CJ-5?

• CATEGORIES: Tires and Rims This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Jim plans to purchase a CJ-5 and drive it a few thousand miles home.  He asked me what tires/rims I would recommend for driving on the road, because the jeep currently has NDT tires. I gave him some suggestions, however my research has been more focused on 10″ rims and tires.  Anyone have some suggestions for tires they like?  He might also be interested in selling the NDT tires and rims that are on it, which appear in good shape.

Anyone have Deestone D503 Tire experience?

• CATEGORIES: Features, Tires and Rims This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Greg wrote me with a question for readers.

“Been researching tires for my Dad’s CJ3A restoration project lately. The closest thing I’ve found to a mid-sixties style mud tire that he want’s to use is a Deestone D503. Just wondering if anyone has any experience with this tire (7.00 x 15), or perhaps has a more economical or even modern tire with similar tread characteristics. For our purposes with this jeep, visual is as important as off road performance. Oh, price is a consideration too. These retail for around $130-145, plus tubes, mounting, shipping, etc etc. One issue I’m having with this tire at the moment is the diameter.   29.8″ versus the 26 or 27″ it’ll replace.   I’m ok with slightly larger, but I worry about getting too big.”
