    How long ago did you do it?

    i would say "If it's such an issue now, you can either file a small claims suit or pound sand"

    It's less Tacoma and more mod
    Why do that when you can get ripoff patterns at new tire prices from TreadWright, plus then they'll always be out of balance and chunk dangeously.

    I've had treawright tires, they're dogshit and the cost savings is so pathetic that they shouldn't even be a consideration. If you want cheapo tires get some Milestars or Nankangs

    I would run a tire like that on a sxs or trailer rig no problem.

    Never tried the nankings

    I don't think I'd go cheaper than Ironman

    their AT and MT worked great

    I haven't tried a Ironman yet, but probably gonna give Thunderers a run on the LC. The Milestars are a fan favorite for el cheapo tires right now, patagonias are everywhere.

    Yeah the price has gone up a lot but they certainly aren't a premium brand, they're at that teetering point where they could either release more tires that end up being popular or they could have some overpriced duds and be one hit wonders with the Pataguccis
