Thanks Phil and Ken... that was my thought as well. The 15.50" was just gettin' a bit too meaty for me. The 13.50" appears to be a nice, happy-medium. I have yet to post any pics but I will as soon as the new tires get slapped on later this week. Half of my goodies came from Phil anyway!
Cheers!

Re: Toyo Open Country 38" x 13.50" question
I am very interested in purchasing these same tires. Does anyone have any recommendations on where to purchase in the Dallas area?
Craig what did they cost you, if you don't mind me asking.

Re: Toyo Open Country 38" x 13.50" question
I bought them from 4wheel parts. I went into the store in Houston atleast 4 times to try and work some off the price. The two different people I talked to would not budge a bit on the price. I checked online and the size of tires I was getting was not listed but I saw a special for 10% off all toyos. Once again I went to the 4wheel store and they told me I could get the 10% off. Since I was in a rush, I left and went back later that weekend to purchase them. Then they told me the 10% sale was not for the toyos. When I mentioned they were on the internet for 10% off they got on the phone and acted like they called the internet sales manager. They told me the sales manager said the sale was not for the toyos.
Soooo, I went back home and called the "internet sales manager" myself. What do you know......I purchased them over the phone from 4wheelparts. It was a total of $500 cheaper than what they quoted me at the store. That was for four tires with shipping to the door and a road hazard warranty.
In short...buy over the internet or phone!
