    okay guys i need some help here...

    so i have 2 general grabbers red letters, for the spares...

    but i need 4 more, i ordered them over a month ago and still havent got them. so we called general and they said they are re doing the red letters since they turn pink and wont be making them again untill december, so that means i wont get them till a couple months into next year.

    that wont work for me, i need tires asap. what are some good tires that have a thick side wall and can take a beating? and should i sell the 2 red letters i have now and get all matching or just keep them till i can get 4 more red letters?

    dam decisions decisions....

    thanks guys.

    and 4.88s on a 4cylinder with 33x12.5s isnt too over kill right? it will not be my DD, mostly my desert rig. i know with 4.56s and 33s its back to stock, but more low end power never hurt..

    pretty much. They buy and sell more then you can imagine. So they get them by the truck load.
