tires so expensive :(

need to get tires soon, i offroad enough to need them and my current tires are just getting worn. trying not to spend over 500.


any suggestions??

 

maybe some re-treads?

 

x2 on the retreads for under 500.

 

wuts rethread?

 

You can check out https://www.treadwright.com/ I have heard good things about them.

I just got the GY duratracs and love them! Great tires, depends on what size you need but if you want to spend a bit more and use all the deals I found you can get some new tires.

I got mine from 4 wheel parts and used http://www.ebates.com/rf.do?referrerid=1mVVgchS%2FEnIUldnyuoXSA%3D%3D

for a extra 8.5% off plus 115 in rebates.

Good luck!

 

not 'thread' its 'tread'.
A retread tire is where they shave the outside of a worn out tire, and bond a new tread onto it.

 

tht would b a good idea but my current tires arent offroaders

 

They dont re-tread yours. LOL they use tires that are designed for it. haha. Click on that link to learn more. or google it.

 

haha r they recycled tires??

 

Yea they take old worn out tires then they "put" new fresh tread on em. You buy em and ride em like new haha

x2!!!

Might be able to find some hankook dynapro atm's for somewhere around $500

You're not going to get ANYTHING new that isn't a piece of shit installed out the door for under $500. Tires are expensive

 

im in the same boat, i need new tires. when i started looking i was shocked at how much tires have gone up in price. ive been checking craigslist with no luck. has anybody here bought the retreads from treadwright? i looked through treadwrights site, they dont have any in stock size (265/65/17) for us, they do have 265/70/17 but im worried they will rub.

 

Don't skimp on tires, you will regret it in the long-run.

It's like buying a mattress, they are ridiculously expensive for a good one, but you use it for 8 hours every night so it better be comfortable.

 

Stock rims and stock height you should not have any issues clearing 265/70R17. Plenty of people have run them on stock trucks with no rubbing. I'm running that size now but slightly lifted.

 

I have the same size on my '01 PreRunner all stock with no rubbing. I think that 265/70/r17 was a factory upgrade option. You shouldn't have any trouble with them. I can take pics if you like.

 

265/70R17 will fit stock but there is no factory upgrade option to go to that size tire, at least not on the 2nd Gen. Stock is 265/65R17 on the TRD Sport. Maybe a dealer-installed option but none of them came from the factory like that.
