Now just imagine rim prices up here too. Id love to get a decent set of black rims and some good rubber, But i know its going to cost me around 2200 - 2600.
I really like the look of the rugged terrains, but I cant see them doing very good at all in wet or snowy conditions.
Ive been thinking on the general tire at2 personally.

Thirty two years of owning 4x4s and I've never owned a set of either Goodyear or BFG tires that didn't give me problems. So I'd opt for the Toyo tires personally. Although I will say that I had a set of Terra Grapplers on my Grand Cherokee that were awesome in every environment except deep mud (but then again NO A/T tire is good in deep mud). Probably the single best wet pavement tire I've ever owned. I also keep reading rave feedback from guys across multiple forums about the AT3. IMO you can't go wrong with either the Toyo, Nitto or Cooper...

I'm definately the lucky one here. I work for Bridgestone- Firestone, and get my 20's for under 500.00 a set, out the door. You guys running AT tires need to look at some of the Bridgestone Dueler line. Great tires great mileage great ride, and for me great price but I don't know what the price to the general public would be. I am currently running 275-55-20 Firestone Destination LE tires. Better price than Bridgestone but still a very good tire
