AMEN !!! I love em, and hate em all so much ! lol

I would say maybe buy some used bfg a/t ???

We have a local used tire spot by my place. I can check em out this weekend if ya like. It would save ya money, then you could buy the bigger/badder tires when the cash comes.

Just a thought out loud.

yeah, i just checked my statement and im acutally up to about 1300...damn scangauge and lift.hahaha. so it looks like the tires will be put on hold. i might be able to get them before hollister but right now it looks like theyll have to wait till sept when i get the $840. the torn up tire isnt bad i just figured i would replace it but while im at it maybe upgrade. o well i know 4wheelparts will have 10% or even better sales in the future.

upadate- so ive been researching tires alot recently. i was going to go with a 255/85/16 but when i saw them on a truck i realized they were too narrow for my look so the new plan is for some 295/75/16's. looking at the general grabber at2 or the nitto terra grappler. mts in that size are just way too expensive. new bilstein 5100s are coming for the rear to get it down to where it should be and not break my back over every bump.

Check out Tread Depot. They are dirt cheap and shipping is free. I just bought some tires from them and had them installed at WalMart.
