Default Cooper Zeon LTZ - Your Thoughts

I was princing tires on http://www.discounttiredirect.com

and found these:
http://www.discounttiredirect.com/di...w=false&cs=275

They are stock size but for $190.00 each how can I justify 35x12.50R20 at $360 each. (I meant $320. Corrected 10/1/2010)

Here is a truck with them on it.

Well, lets here it. Save money with these tires OR level and Spend twice as much for 35x12.50R20?

What about a Nitto Terra Grappler or even a Bridgestone Dueler Revo 2

I will admit they look sweet that big....but ou could get a almost 35- 34.3 for $100 less per tire....

275/65/20 Load "E" O/D 34.1
Price:$230.99-

Still cheaper -

325/60/20 Load "D" O/D 35.4
Price:$335.99----Qty:

The cooper zeon ltz are a great tire. I have them and there great in snow and i dont get stuck. There aggressive but are quite on road. I love them. That price you have is high. Go here .
http://www.treadepot.com/tire/01403.html

There only 163 a tire. Less then what you found. I rememeber buying my zeons last dec at tread depot for only 136 a tire. I got them cheap but still 163 is not bad.
Good luck

here is another link of ones that have some cheaper than $360 a tire

http://www.discounttiredirect.com/di...25&ar=60&rd=20

but if you can be happy with 34.1 then the Nittos are the way to go at only $230 a tire


LT275/65R20 E 126R 200-820 15.6 34.09 10.98 7.5-(8.0)-9.5 3750@80 609

That is a good price aiden....just depends on if the 1 inch difference matters that much to him

Cooper LTZ
275/60/20 = 33.0 - $163. each $652 total

Nitto Terra
275/65/20 = 34.1 - $228 each $912 total

So Mr. Jordan is an inch worth $260?

I'm a fan so far. Prol 8,000 miles on mine thus far & they still look brand new.(roughly 65 mile daily commuter) Do your homework and u can find them cheaper. A tire wholesaler in the north east advertises "beat any price" so I went to pep boys and got a quote for buy 3 get 1 free & took it to that wholesaler and they beat it. Worked out to be $139 a tire that way. I also wanted 35's but price and practicality lead me to the LTZ. I'm a happy customer!

Not IMO. And I misspoke. I meant $320 not $360.
