Need help finding a nice tire that will fit my truck, i have a 2003 slt 2wd, i know its 2wd but i still want nice looking tires.. I have no idea where to start ive went to tire finding sites to see what would fit but every tire i find is a radial... I dont have to much of a budget and was looking for a 33 inch tire.. Thanks

 

Why wouldnt you want a radial? Bias is old, wears funny, wears fast, doesn't stay balanced, floats on the highway, heats up..etc on and on....

33" tires are going to cost you anywhere from $600-1200 depending on your style needed.

 

Get radials...I build tires for a living take my word.

Try tirerack.com you can search by size. Put in 285/70/17.

Don't get good years.

 

I have general grabber AT2's. Not sure if they co e in 33's but they look nice and work great. In winter weather and mud.

 

No Goodyear? How come? I'm asking because i've been eyeing the Wrangler Silent Armor's for my Ram...


And OP, 33's are gonna cost you. I know its already been said but i'm also pricing out tires for my 1500 and its easily gonna be around $1000...

 

I just dont like the look of radials, ive got some on now looking for some nice but not to aggressive

 

Lmao.
Well, Swampers are out then. Lol.
Other than old school rods and mud trucks, nobody runs Bias.

What the he'll do you mean you don't like the looks of radial tire?
99% of what's on the road is Radial.
I'm betting you couldn't spot a Bias either way.
My gawd man.

So you prefer the morning thumping, the bad handling, the less safety etc etc of a Bias?

Have fun with that. Bias are easy to find. Go to a tire shop and order a set.

They're all going to laugh at you and take your money.

Holy Fxxx.

 

yeah those are perfect really, and have a nice price tag thanks

The only benefit mentioned for Bias ply tires is the strength in the sidewalls. The cheaper cost is outrun by the fast wear, bad handling, safety concerns..etc
If you ever drove a 6,000lb truck with Bias tires, you would not want them. Truck will wander all over the road, slide around turns in bad weather and wear the shoulder out within 10kmi because the whole tire folds over.

 

I just had them put on back in the fall, I payed $945 for mine in a shop ( was cheaper then on line for me anyway ). There not vary loud either.
