Default 20" tires

So I have a QC ram with 20s. I had Cooper LTZ and liked them. Have about 50-55,000 miles on them. I just got a flat in one and it is not repairable. I NEED to get a set of tires ASAP because right now I have the original spare on the truck(I had one of the OEM tires blow out on me on the highway at 35,000 miles!). The LTZ still have some tread on them, but with 55,000 miles on them I figure I should just get a whole new set. HOWEVER, I called on the LTZ and it seems as though the prices have gone way up since I first bought them. The local tire place has a set of Cooper Discover H/Ts in stock for $160 a tire. Anyone have any input on this tire? Can anyone recommend another tire for around the same price?

Thanks

I have two new Discovery Cooper H/T's that cam on my truck I'll sell you for $100 a tire

I also have a set of 4 Pro Comp A/T tire on 20" rims that I can sell as a whole or part out. Here's a pic of the Pro Comps, if you're interested, I can get you pics of the Coopers tomorrow!

These tires don't have more than 2,000 miles on them, I replaced them with 35's after a few months due to my lift
PM me if you're interested in either

I can't believe you found tires for 20s for $160. When I had a tire blow out the cheapest tire I could find (stock size) was $250

Default General's

I was looking at Discount Tire and it looks like $ 750ish for General UHP in 275-60-20. Anyone tried them? I've been through three other sets so far: Two sets of factory Goodyears (I know..... TWO sets? Momentary Lapse of Reason) And a set of BF Goodrich Long Trails. Quiet but crappy in the rain.

Always wanted to use "Momentary Lapse of Reason" in a sentence. LOL

Footprint looks good too.

I just bought a set of 4, 275/55-20 Goodyear Wrangler S2's for under $740. Not the greatest tires, but it will take me 5 years to put 45,000 miles on em.

When I had stock 20s I bought a brand new set off ebay for $300, paid another $100 to get them all shipped here and paid another $100 to have them mounted and balanced. Everyone local was 700-800 a set
