    Im soo tempted right now! I found some brand new Duratracs in 285's for 800 bucks.
    And I dont have the funds right now, but was thinking about just selling my coilovers bc I dont care for them, ride kinda sucks... and just running a spacer lift for now, until I can get Icon's.

    Not sure what to do..... would you just wait for tires or would you get tires first and wait and save for the coilovers you want? :confused:

    You think your coilovers suck...A spacer isn't going to be any better and it's going to be another 2-3 hundred bones spent for "in the mean time"

    Yeah, true! But 800 for the duratracs New, is an awsome deal!
    I know the spacer lift is worse but these RadFlo's suck ass on bigger bumps. And they top out hard. I probably wont get the duratracs, its just an awsome deal!

    When did duratracs get to be so expensive? When they came out they were in the range of $170.

    No sense in spending more money on a spacer lift on top of the tires. Unless the coils sell for $1k

    I found them on craigslist. Some guy traded something for them but never mounted them.
    Up here in my area the duratracs sell for like 1200 bucks. In a 285/70/17 :eek:

    But yeah, I was thinking about doing the spacer lift for about $150, sell my Radflo's for about 600ish, and then get the 285's, then later get the Icons i want.
    But am not sure, bc I will hate the spacer lift, but love my tires! :D

    :confused:


    $800 New is a horrible deal unless you're talking about 17s??? I got mine 265/75/16 Duratracs for under $650.
