before you put tires on them you should powder coat them black, that would look BA.
Thats A Thought

Looks like about $275-$280 wherever I look... That's a good price to me though, because the ONLY other brand besides Mickey Thompson/Dick Cepek I would buy would be Toyo's, and they are considerably higher. It's a shame you didn't get 17" wheels, you could get 35x12.5x17s for about $50 less per tire...
I paid dead cost for my Cepek's (again, I do computer & network work for a guy who owns two tire/repair shops) and they were $218 each, delivered, in 35x12.5x17, so I don't think $280 per tire is out of line at all...

I think you should absolutely listen to hammer on this one. (dig your rig by the way hammer)

Suck it up and buy the ATZ's cause you're gonna love the way they look, you'll notice the performance difference, and they'll last you longer than anything else.

That's my take on the whole deal. Do it!

What size lift are you going with?
I have pro comp 18" rims with Toyo open country AT 325/65/R18s. If you go with a 35" tire, aside from the price difference, you will be happy you got 18s instead of 17s
