Tire squeek on tight turn. - 28/06/04 10:26 AM

Ok when I make a 3pt turn or a tight turn in my xterra the tires squeek as I pull forward and have the wheel cranked. I have the general crappers on it and I will for a few thousand more miles till they are worn out. Is this normal? Is there something I can do to fix this?

Yep, it happens. Mine did with the grabbers, and it still does with my geolandars.

My grabbers did that too.

My BFG AT's do it more. (probably because of the more aggressive treads)

Ok cool! I just wanted to check. I had been noticing it more lately. My tires were a little low and I've yet to drive it since I pumped my tires up.

The BFG Long Trails were notorious for it.

Thanks for the help!
I'm gonna need new tires come winter time... I'm going to start trying to pick a tire.
