Default Tires: Cooper, Nitto

Do the Cooper Zeon LTZ tires come in anything bigger than the 275 60 R20? I cannot find them anywhere.

I love the look of the trail grapplers, but are they worth the money? They are like twice the price of the coopers! granted the trail grapps would be a bigger tire, but they are brazy pricey. cheapest I found shipped was $1400 for the 35x12.5 R20

ltz come in 305 55 20, but they are alot more $ than stock size, for some reason, that size is super expensive, you could get cooper stt, 33 12.5 20, but they are around 300 per tire, kumho also has road venture mt for 283 per tire

Yeah I saw the 305 55 R20 but they are only a 33.2" tire I was hoping for a 34 or 35, oh well.

What are you guys paying for your trail grapplers (35's)?

Comparing the Zeons to the Trail Grapplers is apples to oranges, you're looking at a mild A/T and comparing it to a fairly aggressive M/T... of course they're going to cost more.

yeah thats what I was wondering Pyro. I guess you get what you pay for. Is there any tire more aggressive than the Cooper LTZ but around the same price? I think the Terra Grapps are kinda similar, but any that I am missing?
