Default new tires pics

I just got the pics off my brothers digital camera of my new Cooper Discoverer S/T tires. Boy these things have some beefy tread and look pretty aggressive. They do have a pretty smooth ride on the road with a slight sing to them but hard to tell with a flowmaster exhaust. I really liked their Discoverer STT's but I dont think they would handle snow/icy as compared to these. These should do just fine but wont know until November when the snow starts to fall.

Once I pay off the visa card for these things I dont know what new thing to buy for the truck will be........maybe roof cab lights?

What size are they and how much did you pay for them?

Sorry to hijack your thread, but...

A buddy of mine is selling his 18" Ultra Hot Schott rims with 35x12.5R18 Discoverer STT's. The rims and tires are brand new, and he wants about $2600 usd for them. Good deal or no?

Those are LT285/75/R16, they were on sale at a store in Wisconsin called Blain's Farm and Fleet for $170.00. Total price with 4 wheel tire alignment was $833.00. I figured it wasnt a bad deal.

Im not sure what those rims were priced at brand new but they better be worth about $1700.00 for it to be a good deal for me.

depends how much those wheels are worth.. the tires have to be around 250 a peice figuring their 35's and made for a 18 inch tire.. that alone is 1,000 dollars.. so in that case those wheels must be atleast 500 a peice ($2000) for it to be a good deal
