Alright...here we go, another tire thread

Then tell him toyo mt ftw lol. I'd have to say go with BFG. They may ride a little stiff but they last much longer than nitto's

Yeah I hear they are the best for life. I have seen them cake up pretty bad in the mud though. But as little off roading as I do now, I'm not too worried about it

Just get the Goddamned Cooper Zeon LTZ's already!

I have the cooper ltz's on my dodge. They seem to be a good tire.

So I went to my local tire shop today and wanted to get some prices from him.

This is what I came out with (All Prices Out the Door, installation EVERYTHING):

BFG

285/65R/18s- $1442

Terra Grapplers

285/65R18- $1070
295/70/18- $1070

Trail Grapplers

285/65R/18- $1185.56
295/70/18- $1198

Those are all better than online prices for having installation included. I really think I may go with some Trail Grapplers now, since the price difference is so much smaller than expected

I'm looking at going with the Trail grapps also next summer, let me know how they are.

Well fWONk! Tires are driving me fWONking nuts! I had finally been dead set on Goodyear Duratracs, I wanted to order them from our local Goodyear store. Reason being 2 things, 1: Mike the manager there has done some great work & service with some good friends of mine and with me once. 2: I wanted to get the lifetime rotations.

Well I had a flat today and I thought, ok I need to order these tires time to stop putting it off! Well call the manager, 295/65/18s are out of stock in Charlotte (which supplies all of S&N Carolina) well he can get me a set from PA. I told him to go ahead and I'd have to pay the shipping ($100) well he calls me back 25mins later. The ones in PA are sold so he can't get them.

He suggested the Kelly Fierce Attitude M/T in 325/65/18s and he is ordering them for the shop and he said no problem if I didn't want them than no problem. He'd still look for the Duratracs.

It's been a shitty day getting yanked around, and having to change a tire in the school parking lot and fWONking up my hand at the same time
