So i went shopping for tires today, i figured I would get some rough prices for spring time so i could start savin up, good news two of my stocker goodyears are separating from the belts.
Your title states urgent, but yet your not going to make any purchases until springtime????
Anyways, if you current tires are separating, they are more than likely warrantied at a Pro-rated amount, not that you would want to replace those crappy tires with more of the same.....lol
I have the 275/60/20 LTZ's. I couldn't justify the extra $100/tire for the slightly wider 305's. Just so you know, Discount has that Cooper listing on Ebay for $171 instead of $177 which is on their website. That tire size has risen in price quick.
I was thinking the same thing 'dog. Evidently different people hold to a different meaning of the word "URGENT"...
Yeah, just the same as Excellent condition. Reminds me when I went to look at an old Eltigre in the mid 90's, the guy said the seat was in immaculate condition. Well, it had been duck taped completely over and the muffler was a Maxwell House can. The color wasn't yet burned off the side....lol That's when i just went and bought a new sled. I went right from his door step to the dealer lot..hehehehe
Anyone run anything different? I was a BFG fan, and I saw they had long trail T/As for a reasonable price, but I don't have experience with that model of tire on these trucks. Someone told me they suck, but they seem to have good treadwear and good ratings on tirerack. I also have 20's.
I ran them on my 01 F150 that I had before the Ram. Did great in all weather conditions. I will be installing them on the Ram when the time comes. Sam's club has a great price on them. I get mine there.
let me clarify for you dirtydog, I originally went browsing for tires just to check some prices b/c i was planning on purchasing some in the spring, BUT after they checked them out they informed me that they were separating, SO then it became urgent b/c I needed some input b/c i was going back the following morning to purchase them asap.
so thats why i posted "urgent"
copy?
I measured them one day. I got 11" outside to outside. that's why the stock 275's have such a bubble in the side wall. the tread is not as wide as the rim
