lol the guy did something wrong. he told me it'd be 281 mounted and balanced per tire. turns out its only 259 mounted and balanced. i would have been willing to pay the 281 but he took the time to double check and call me to let me know. that is exactly why i prefer to go to small mom and pop shops. plus it's less than a mile from where i live. and its an off road shop so i'll get to look around at all the jeeps and trucks they build. maybe even discuss suspension for my ram 
What tires did you go with?

i got the tires mounted and balanced on my new rims. the tires are super meaty i love them. they have soo much thread. the thread is 20/32" deep from what i've read online.
i only got two for now. in a few weeks i'll get the other two, put my 2.5" front leveling kit on, and put my 2"-3" add a leaf on and i'll have a nice looking truck!!
