Alloy vs. Steel

id go with pepboys they have the buy 3 get the fourth free thing and if they dont give u the fourth free(like they did me) give them hell and theyll send ya a rebate check

 

Ok thanks guys, I can't remember the name of the tire place i have at home but I know my parents dont use them because they don't sell michelins

 

to me.....michelins are a great tire for the most part(i dont really like the looks of their new a/t tire though), but they are way overpriced.

 

Well my realistic view of my truck is a DD that can run the trails if need be and it sounds like the added weight and performance of the muds aren't what i'm looking for so I'm going to look for some 265 A/Ts. My parents get the michelins for road use only. They are set in their ways and think they are the longest lasting, highest quality tread and they don't mind paying the extra for them.

 

Dakota Definity from Pep Boys
Buy 3 get 1 free.

They're rebranded Cooper tires. Mine are the MT. 40K mile warranty. The AT have a 50K mile warranty.

 

Wow those look great. I will have to look into finding a pep boys...

Edit: There is this great feature on their website called Find a location...

 

So I just found out that costco has a special running on BFGs. I'm going to look into it and get back to you

 

Nitto Terra Grapplers, I got them in 17's for $118/tire.

Find a place that price matches, then find the cheapest internet site, print it out and take it to them. This site had the cheapest Nitto's I could find and also had the cheapest BFG mudders we just put on my bf's truck.

Thanks for the heads up foxy. They do have some good prices on there. Rob, how much they those come out to be, they don't post prices online

 

go with the nittos, thats what im gonna run! got em for 820 OTD

 

ahhh $820 is waaaaay more than i can afford haha

 

if i rember right i got my defenity m/ts for somewhere around 530ish
there 31x10.50x15

 

I got them for $480 plus tax and install. I got rims also so I don't know what the total for just tires was. Install around here is about $20/tire or $80 total. So around $600 for everything.
