    Does it seem strange to anyone else that tires cost more than wheels?

    Not as strange as 20" (wheel size) tires with less rubber cost more than 16" tires of roughly the same diameter. :notsure:

    It's due to feed costs. Tires eat their weight in grain every 5hrs. Wheels are very light grazers.

    No. If you spend $60.00 a week in gas, in 15 years that's $46,800. Does it seem weird that you pay more for gas to run your truck than you paid for your truck?
