Default are these tires any good?

Bought some 20''x9'' rims that come stock on 3rd gen rams (the five star with flat outsides)...and found some good tires for cheap --275/65r20 goodyear wrangler all terrains and yes i do plan on doing a leveling kit but im not completly sure ill need it since I have a trx4 which is already and inch higher than normal. Also swamped grills with the guy so now i have a full chrome one!

That is a decent price, but they are not a very aggressive tread pattern. And they will not last very long, but will get you through if in a tight spot! You could get a 305x55xr20 in a cooper zeon brand new for about 600. that would be a warrantied tire, a better performing tire, a larger tire, a more aggressive tread, and they look better too! Bottom line you WILL be happier than the used "good for a year's" I would go with the coopers!!!

I went w/ the cooper zeon 275x60x20. stock size. In my neck of the woods they ran me $700 for all four. D@mn good price in my mind. I love the tread depth for an a/t tire. IMO great tire for the price.

wow thanks i will keep those in mind! My stock small tires on little stock rims have about 10,000 left on them and that will take the rest of the year to run off so i might just wait...but with those big shiny rims staring at me i might just go ahead and buy me some cooper's! aleast after I get my other mods done
