hey Ipe , i got them thru big O . they are my service and tire vendor on my light duty trucks so i got a pretty good deal 5 mounted out the door $1250.00 not too bad considering they list over 300 apiece . look around and try to check americas tire and tire pros too have seen real good prices from them online . they will show list price and then usually an option for local dealer price . the dealer price should allways be lower . try to pit one against the other in a bidding war or just throw a price out and try dealing from there . </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

I called my local dealer today, he said he could get them for $249.50., forgot to ask
him how much more for mounting.

I might check on the 285's...

NEOCON1 03-14-2006 03:40 AM

west , great price i think since you drive so much and so far from your dealer the 33's would probably be a better choice for your needs .

i cant post this enough its a big factor to consider on the 315's .

<span class="ev_code_RED">before doing this mod consider these things</span>

i need to let everyone know if they feel their truck is underpowered on highway , or they like to drive 80 mph , or still want to get close to 20 mpg , are worried about alittle tire rub , or thinks their truck shifts too much on hills .
<span class="ev_code_RED">this mod is not for you</span> .
but if you dont mind cruisin at 65 to 70 , down shifting on hills and having a little rubbing in extreem conditions , and dont mind trimming a little plastic (no need to if not going extreem wheelin) , then this mod is for you .

I like the way they look on your truck, Neocon.

Very nice.

westhillsat 03-15-2006 02:02 AM

Called local dealer back today about the 285's.
He called their distribution warehouse, on national backorder until at least early June. Other sites on internet show backordered

Found a set of four on the internet for less then local price including shipment. Called their 800 # and asked if they had any more, they said we have 6 I said I want 5 of them

Should be here by Monday

NEOCON1 03-15-2006 02:54 AM

thanks NoMo my truck says it wants to grow up to be like yours

West , great man you will be very happy with the 33's they will be awsome . man i didant think they would be that hard to find , great work tracking them down , at least you dont have to wait for these as long as the wait for your truck we are getting closer to the big week oh yea funny how we are all moding our trucks for this

I called the local guy back and asked if he had any problem installing them. He said no, but asked where did you find some? I told him they are coming from Arkansas!

Hope to have them on sometime next week.

This truck is getting to be an expensive hobby

Oh, I didn't tell the wife about the new tires yet. heh

NEOCON1 03-15-2006 03:19 AM

hey west did you find them at that BIBLE and TIRE store from the red neck thread LOL

west tell the wife they came for your neighbor but wasnt home , but you think they would look better on your truck

westhillsat 03-15-2006 03:21 AM

Amen bro

NEOCON1 03-15-2006 03:24 AM

I put the Goodyear MT/R 315's on this week. They only rub the front sway bar at full lock, power is down a little and they make more noise but are much better off road. Unfortunately I think I bent something because the alignment is way off after the trip. Got the pic to upload.

NEOCON1 03-18-2006 04:24 PM

oh man , sounds like you were getting crazy let us know what got bent and if do to increased tire size or just going too fast
