Ok I am getting close to tires and want the Cooper Zeon ltz's. I have a 2" level on Moto Metal 951 black wheels but just want to stick with the stock 275/60/20 size.

I have been looking at treadepot.com and discounttiredirect.com and from treaddepot I can get them for 768 shipped with the road hazard. It would be 850 from discounttiredirect but their roadhazard appears better. What do you guys think?

The other option that I have been looking at is the Goodyear Wrangler Hp stock tires. I know alot of people say they suck, but right now treadepot has them for 99 bucks a tire and a 25 dollar instant rebate. 484 dollars shipped for 4 or 531 shipped with road hazard.

Is is worth downgrading from the Coopers to the Goodyears to save anywhere from 240-320 bucks? Thanks for the opinions guys.

 

I dunno, is having any traction on wet roads worth $250 to you? it is to me. After my experience 2 days ago, I have no doubt that I will not buy the stock HP's again. I happened to be merging onto I-35 here in KC, the roads were wet as it had been raining. Going about 25-30 mph I give it a little gas to move over and get into traffic. The truck down shifts and the rear end breaks free and starts to slide out. Luckily I was only going ~30-35 at this point and letting up on the gas resolved the issue, but it still demonstrates the craptastic traction capabilities of the HP's on wet roads.

I notice your in KS (same here) and we tend to get quite the variety of weather. I don't know what your experience with the HP's in the snow was, but i was not impressed.

I will be going with the Zeon's once I wear out these HP's.

Right now, I have the Bridgestone Dueller HL Alenza tires on there, not the stock hp's. I never drove on the Hp's as I bought the truck just after the orig. ownder put the Duellers on there. Looking at the two tires online, the Dueller HL alenza tire looks pretty similar to the Wrangler HP and I have been happy with my Dueller's. That is why I asked. The price seemed ridiculously cheap for a 20" tire.
