This is not good. I was calling around yesterday and today for prices on tires and wheels. NO ONE has the Toyos or can even get them. Most every place said they don't expect to get them for a while and a few shops tried to tell me that they could order them and see when they came in, yeah right! But, heres my DILEMA! I had everything picked out, the Fabtech lift with Neeper Vandals 20x8.5 wrapped in Toyo Open Country M/Ts 35x12.50x20. Seriously if I can't get those tires, whats out there? Theres not much. I know the Xterrains but they are 13.50s and wouldn't work that well with a 8.5" rim and Im not doing Nitto MGs again. Whats out there guys? Any help?

 

hey thump- i was getting the info to update my tuning sheets before they ship my xc2 and i read that the procomps are good from 8" up to 12" on rim width- so if you had to settle on the xterrains, the 13.5 x20 would run you fine http://www.procomptires.com/xt3plyapps.htm

 

Do you know how much list is for the Xterrains and how long they last?

 

Thumper, I think I'd take that as a sign from above that you should really do a 2/4 drop on your truck and install some nice rims and street tires!

 

NO WAY JOSE!

. . actually, my mom told me the same thing today.

 

If you really want the toyo's check some canadian retailers. They seem to have more of them in stock. When the 35/12.5/18 were on a national backorder i got 6 of them in 2 days. A Place called tire country in edmonton should be able to help you out.

 

How much though? . . and wouldn't shipping be killer?

Does anyone know how much the Nitto MG 35/12.50/20 weighs, as well as the Toyo Open Country M/T? Im trying to compare the weights of tires.

 

workin on finding some procomp info friggin expensive is all i can say so far... the 35" toyos weigh 80/tire, the 35 xterrains weigh 76/tire dunno about the nittos

okay one site had em for aver 600/tire and this site is the lowest i've found them, and they're 408/tire http://www.4wheelonline.com/Products...roductId=71724

 

how about some coopers?

 

Thumper why dont you want to go with the Nittos, the toyos are made in the same factory, just a different tread pattern? Just curious.

 

I've already had the Nittos and honestly, I wasn't that impressed with them.

The tread pattern is a completely different direction of look that Im trying to do with this truck.

They only make up to a 18" wheel.

 

You could check with 1010tire dot com or tiretrends dot com. They are both canadian that ship to the states.


EDIT: Just checked both. The toyo's are 559.00 USD from 1010tire and the 35/12.5/20 toyo's aren't listed on tiretrends but if you call them they will get them i'm sure. They have the mud grapplers in 20's at tiretrends for like 500.00CDN/each.

 

So ive been busy and havnt been around the site lately....

What happened thump? Didnt think you were going to lift this truck..or at least for a year??? It hasnt been that long since ive been gone has it??

 

I had 35" XTerrains on a 7" stock jeep wheel on my jeep and that ran just fine but they were 15" wheels with a lot more sidewall.

If you have a 4 wheel parts near you ask if they are having deals or if they can make a deal for you. I bought my xterrains from them for buy 3 get one free.

 

But, what do you think about Xterrains on those wheels and lift?

Nope, October.

bubba joe

I just looked at the website again and it says for the 13.50 you can use a 8-12" wide wheel.
