New Tires--great deal.

I have been wanting some new MT tires for my tacoma but didn't want a lift kit to fit them. Have been getting mixed feelings about what will fit and what won't.

I just put a set of Dakota MT (cooper tire company) 265/75 r16 at pep boys. May not be the best tire but at the price I couldn't go wrong.
all 4 installed for 550.00 then I get 140.00 back on rebate so for a little over $400.00 bucks I got some Mud tires with road hazard warranty and an expected life of 40,000 miles. So far I love these tires. No rubbing on stock suspension and really bites in the soft dirt.

 

cool... pics?

 

DOn't' know if this is going to work. trying to put in some pics

 

is this deal going on at all pep boys?

 

as far as i know it is at all the pepboys. You have to buy all 4 and have them install them and then mail in a rebate for the free tire. But even without the rebate it was about half of what I was getting prices on for mud tires anywhere else.

I would assume it would be at your local pepboys too.

 

I got the same deal in San Diego.

 

I like those rims, can you give me some details on them. size? make? cost?

thanks

 

Mine are KMC XD 795 Hoss rims. They're 16x8, 4.5" backspace 0 offset, non-hubcentric, 6 lug on 5.5. I bought them at 4wheelparts.com. They're currently on sale for $125 each. You can get them with free shipping if you ship to a 4wheelparts store and pick them up.

 

i am looking at those tires to, either 285 or 305. great deal. Keep us updated on how the tread wears on those.

 

so after mount and balancing yours came out to be 550 also? and you received the 140 rebate?

 

Want to get out cheap - just paint your steelies and add the smaller Toyota caps....

 

I'm not a fan for pep boys, corporate ripped off
if you get a good deal on the Dakota then cool, I thought dakota runs by bridgestone? i guess not..

 

hey what's ur PSI since you change the tire size a little?
i have the 265 70 16, i want to go to the 265 75 16 on the Nitto later on

 

Yep.

 

I think they're rebranded Cooper tires.

 

i got the dakota mt also , cheap, rides nice, not that much noise and thick as fawwwk too i believe they cost 138 each , im a mechanic so i didnt trust some one else installing my tires , i was scared they might scratch my new rim

 

those are great looking...

 

THANKS BRO makes me feel good , i honestly almost got the Fj cruiser trd wheels but i really really wanted the black ones ,couldnt really find it for a good price

 

rob, what size are those?
i called pepboys for 265/70/17 and they said they dont make them in that size.
do you know how much each tire cost?
they said 30 bucks per wheel for mount and balancing at my local pepboys, what a rip off.

 

Mine are 285/75R16. The cost was $139 per tire plus mounting. You have to get the mounting and balancing to get the rebate.
