Alabama thread!

Discount tire direct is who you work with on here. I bough a few sets from discount tire in jackson mi before i moved here. The last 6 years ive bought 5 sets from discount tire direct via the guy that runs the forum page on here.

 

Cool that’s prolly what I’ll try, unless my local tire shop buddy has a better hookup. I think I’m going mt it’s been awhile since I ran mt do they pull less or more in a hydroplane situation? I wish I could still get general grabber red letters those were my favorite tire so far.

 

Ok, I didn't know that there were more options in 17". I won't ever go bigger than a 33" tire anyway. I guess yall's answers will keep me at 17s! lol

 

there are 2 stores just opened in the HSV area. Seem to be some good prices. I'm getting the Milestar Patagonia M/T to go on my 18" wheels in the near future from DT.

 

They running any new store deals?

 

I have roughly $700 in suspension (2nd gen though) and $1400 in wheels / tires but I am on 265’s, not 285’s. Lifted 3/2, didn’t have to do UCA’s after the lift so that saved a little coin and don’t have the cab mount chop or any rubbing but I’m also 2nd gen. Everything was bought brand new except for the add a leaf in the rear but I did buy all 4 shocks and the ride was 100x better than stock.

 

Yea I couldnt think of who else to tag that had the mk6 now i remember we talked about um. Probably what im going with whenever i get there.

 

Morning everybody! Get out those chocolates and roses

 

I like the way some of the SCS wheels look, don’t get me wrong but I couldn’t swing the price. Either way I like the way the MK6’s look and the stance in my opinion is about perfect.

 

Agreed I cant do it when i can get wheels and tires for about the same price as scs wheels, I'll try the -12 hoping for as much poke as can

 

Looked at that tire size but didnt want to buy new wheels as well as tires. Honestly happy i didnt for now. Maybe in the future ill step up a tire size. Truck performs well with the size i have now and zero clearance issues on and offroad.

 

Im doing that as well when i want to spend the cash. I like a little poke lol

 

Oh heck yes!

 

time for me to mooch someones netflix.

I'm going to see which family member has it now. lol

 

Eleven!
