    I saw there was a $100 off for some Nitto tires, but not the Ridge Grappler. Same thing there?

    Edit: Hmmmm, only seeing $20 off. Maybe I'm not getting the good size tars...

    I made the mistake of looking to see if the magical 285/70/17 tars will fit with my set-up. I have come to the conclusion of I don't know. I have OME stuff, 0 offset wheels with (I think) 4.75 backspacing, JBA control arms, and the patented #randyfab CMC. I have 265/70/17 right now that will rub the mudflaps from time to time (they're probably getting ditched soon anyway). So I have no freaking clue. I mean, it's less than an inch in width, and negligible in height...

    You’ll rub your ucas. Them damn jba stick out far. You’ll need some .75” bora spacers on there. As far as rubbing other places, probably lol

    Leave my genital health out of this!

    I'll probably stick with the smaller tires then! Gracias.

    I was getting $60 off instant discount and then $40 off for having them sent directly to the installer. That was for 275/70r18.

    Now it's up to $80 off instantly.

    It changed since I had looked. I ordered them. It was $40 off and then a little more for military. I think the discount depended on size. When I looked at wider tires it was $60. I saved $50 over Simple Tire so I'm happy.

    I am torn because I am a cheap bastard. Tires are important but that's not a small chunk of change. I might as well go ahead and pull the trigger. The only better deal would be NTB's buy 2, get 2 free. However, there's no way to know when they'll be running that deal next. And if I wait until February to see if they are running the deal I will likely miss out on this deal.

    I cried when I pulled the trigger. There's plenty of cheap-o tires for less running around out there. I think I considered Kenda for a bit and another off-brand that was made by another off-brand. In the end, the price difference wasn't enough for me to go cheap. Simple Tire had a bunch of off-brands. I think Tire Buyer did, too. Worth a look to weigh it out. I've gone to go buy tires a few times and then backed out. My current tires aren't quite done, but two of them won't make state inspection in July.

    Would Nitto fall under the Buy 2, get 2?

    They were last time but I don’t know how they decide which brands are part of the deal. So they may not this time around, if they even run that promotion.

    Too late for me now. Guess you'll have to consult a psychic. Or just gamble. I just want the tires to live up to the hype.
