help with 20" tires
hey guys I need some opinions. I have a 2002 quadcab 4x4. I am about to replace the tires and was wondering if I should go with the Goodyear Wrangler HP 275-60-20's, or the Cooper Discoverer HT 275-60-20's? I have the (I guess stock) goodyears on now, I bought the truck less than a year ago used and the tires were already almost gone. Thanks, your imput is appreciated.

RE: help with 20" tires
Please go to tirerack.com . Very easy to navigate and there prices are really good. About a dozen or more tires that will fit the 275/55/20 or the 275/60/20 (I think those are the two sizes that will fit our stock 20's). I got Pirrelli Scorpions for $140 each. Then throw em in the back of your truck and find out who will do tire install and ballance for the cheapest. Lots of places are cheap to do the install because they already make their money selling you the tires. Make sure they can mount and ballance 20's (many places still don't) and ask them if they have the compressed air cannon thing that helps set the bead. It took about two-three shots each rim to set my beads. I also went one size down on the sidewall size by the way. The pirelli tires didn't blow out when I hit that curb at about 30-40 mph either and the white letters look great with the scorpions picture.
