what yall think of this price?

I got quoted today for lift install, wheels and tires for $3,600 and was wondering what yall think?

Wheels are 20x10 XD Monsters- $1000
Tires 37x12.5x20 trail grapplers- $1800
and install(includes sensors and mount and balance)- $800

Personally, I'd pick a different wheel.. Everyone has XD wheels, and you can narrow that down even more to two versions: Monsters and Rockstars.

Kick the trend and find a unique wheel! It will make you happier in the end. I have seen one other truck on here with my Incubus wheels (he is since gone) and have been all over the states to different car shows, etc... and only have seen one chevy with my wheels.

However, it is your choice

Sounds right too me, Why only 12.5 wide tire? IMO thats too narrow for that tall of a tire.

that is a pretty slick wheel. A new, fresher, different take on the popular MM951! I'm not bashing the XD wheels, I personally like the monsters, but would never buy them myself because of there 'played out' status

BMF has a few nice wheels also, but the Novakanes are about as played out as the monsters. Lol. $3600 for rims, tires and lift instal is the going price. I had paid near that just for rims and tires. When I first priced lifting the 150 a local shop quoted me $6000 for 20" wheels, 35" tires, 6" lift and installation. Needless to say I went bigger and installed myself for less than that.

Love the Fuel Gauge in Black Machined. It was third in line behind Black Monsters, and Black Machined Fuel Hostages. Think the Fuels run about 20% more than the Monsters if that concerns you.
