The Lair

Hey David if you're ever bored at work and want to use your Craigslist skills around the Iowa city/western Illinois area, I'm looking for tires and can't seem to find any good ones!

 

You got to me man!! Passed on the tires, gotta keep my baby safe in the winter, and my girlfriend too... Thanks for the advice brother!

 

Ill look. Any specific size you are looking for? 16" or 17" wheels?

 

265/75/16 or 265/70/16s thanks brother! Trying to keep the price around 300

 

this is ok.. but you would also need to buy 1 brand new.

The pickings are slim, sir. But Ill keep an eye out.

 

Toyo Open Country AT2s...





I got my LT265/75s last year for $640. Do you need them right now or can you wait and save a little more?

 

I can wait........ I don't want to, but I can.

 

Sorry...i just know you would have been disappointed with them. You can see all the complaints about poor performance by doing a quick search on here. Best thing I did was get rid of those tires. With a decent set of treads our trucks are beasts during the winter!

 

Honestly if you can wait I'd do that so you can make sure you get what you want because it'll more than likely be a 60k mile investment. You can find a good AT tire for around $600-700.

 

No need to be sorry, I would have been kicking myself for spending the money on them.

 

Cyber Monday or Black Friday may be a good time to shop if you're ready!

 

That's a great idea!


Does anybody else have tire recommendations?

 

when are the next big sales? might wait until then to buy my skids from mobtown and keep an eye on their weekly sales thread

 

They're supposed to be here Thursday.

Thanks to @EatSleepTacos for suggesting to get a turdgen suspension. I might just put them in myself.. we'll see.

 

this is putting bad ideas in my head..

 

im a mud tire kind of guy

stt pro

i am biased

 

I run the K02's and I am happy with them, had them since November of last year, roughly 15K km's on them (10k Miles) no complaints, do well in the winter and I get a lot of winter lol they have done me well but $$$ brand new lol

 

I was very happy with the general grabber at2s on my last truck. Only $150 shipped (that was full price) and they look awesome. Discounttiredirect.com

I'm assuming they're going to run a sale around then sometime. @Mobtown Offroad would be able to chime in, but he's hopefully busy editing pics from this weekend.

 

$150 for all 4?

I just looked at Cooper STT Pro. $1194 shipped for 5

 

hahaha that's not bad actually, that's what I paid for my K02's lol but that's before the conversions
