Yeah I was thinking I should look at the less paying-for-the-name options. I've gotten 40k miles out of this $400 set of Multi-Mile A/Ts and don't really have any huge complaints.

 

100mph weaving in and out of traffic on the freeway amirite

 

Haven't checked the prices in a few months, but... wait for a Discount Tire Direct sale.

I got a set of 5 Toyo ATIII in 245/75r16 SL for $725 (after $110 instant rebate) a few months ago. Staying SL-rated instead of LT makes a big different in price and should be fine for the driving you post about.

 

Just wait til they put a CVT in the frontier

What's the biggest tire I can fit with my transmission?

 

At least it'll go that fast

 

Check out Ironman tires. They're made by Cooper

 

Unless you're looking at 33 A/T's or larger, shouldn't be more than $300/tire.

I hate that I didn't give the Kenda Klever tires a chance after reading more about them. They're plenty cheap.

 

A wheeling buddy has the 35x10.50 Klevers and I was impressed with how they did on the trail

 

Yeah I had my eyes on the Cooper AT3 4S since they're nice and light. But they're $236 each right now.

The toyo AT3s look like solid tires but I fear a larger mpg hit than I'm willing to take.

 

Getting the 6MT was the best choice. Not only did I avoid the strawberry milkshake o death, its way more fun.

A CVT wouldn't even make it to a test drive, I've hated every one I've driven.

 

Yeah, I'm just cheap.

The Kendas look nice but I could only find E rated ones. Heavy AF on a 4 cylinder.

 

On second look... the tires were $167/ea when I bought them in October and are $194 now. Oof.

Fuel economy has been fine, though. Still averaging 20-24mpg depending on local/highway mix.

 

I just need GME to so I can skip straight to 40s and tons.

 

Just saw the scene where he removed his helmet. I recognize the actor from 1 season of The Wire back in like 2003. Have never seen him in anything since.

 

But what if thats a chevy tahoe. WHAT THEN?

 

They' really are worth their weight in gold

 

I good old, old western shoot out
