    If their promotion shows the 265/75R16 Nitto Ridge Grappler for less than us, then we would adjust accordingly.

    If your offroading is mild - fire trails, dirt or gravel roads, then the Michelin Defenders will get you there and back, very quiet on the road, and will save you some gas. However, they certainly don't have an aggressive look. I personally favor function over form and chose to actually downsize slightly to 245/75/R16 Defenders. They are the same diameter as the stock 265s. Really nice tires on the road and the lower weight and slightly narrower profile is actually, though barely, noticeable at the pump. And they are tough tires that won't let you down on dirt or gravel.

    I tried to price match with you guys on some Konig wheels. You guys said the seller wasn't an "authorized seller" and said cannot price match. Then you guys slapped me in the face and offered $2 off of your price.

    We do apologize for the experience you have shared. Although we can not speak to your situation specifically, there have been some seemingly outlandish prices that we have verified and matched, here on the forum for our forum members. We want to be your tire/wheel persons and we don't want price to be an issue.

    I'll still use you guys in the future. You guys are a good company that deserves the business. Was just surprised at the response. Cheers!

    UPDATE: The OEM tires are done at 52,000 miles. I'm replacing them tomorrow with General Grabbers in 265x75 R16. I'll let you know how we like them after a few thousand miles. Thanks for everyone's help.
