    Hoping to come up with some cash soon, so if the price is right, id like to get some 265/70/17 all-terrain tires. Looking for some BFG A/Ts, Goodyear Duratracs or Nitto Terra Grapplers. But anything you have ill consider if the price is right. No mud-terrains though. Thanks

    Search for Jeep Rubicon take offs. Not all terrains but my buddy paid $400 for 4 new BFG KM2's. 255/75/17...I think pretty close to same height.

    Have you tried Craigslist? Was on there earlier and saw tires posted when I searched Tacoma. Don't remember what the were though. I search through Charlotte.

    Yes ive been searching craigslist and havnt came across anything quite yet. And TBK225, I priced Discount Tires 265/70/17 Nitto Terra Grapplers and theyre $730.04 installed, balanced and everything. I appreciate the offer, but I dont think Im gonna be able to get the set you have for sell shipped over and installed for less than that.

    Wait a minute, that price was for the P265/70/17 NTGs, we have to run LT265/70/17s correct?

    Thanks man.

    The only difference is "P" Passenger and "LT" Light Truck. No actual difference in tire size. I do believe there is a difference in material and load ratings though.

    Yeah, LT tires are stiffer and can carry a heavier load. Theres a substantial differnce in price between the two types. I dont go offroad often and when i do, is nothing extreme, so would P-rated tires be strong, or is it worth it to get LT tires to not have to worry about as many flats and such

    The stiffer the tire, the longer it will last. On the flip side, they will ride rougher though.
