Not sure
if you are looking for tires to go with a lift to "get you by for a while"
like maybe a year then you are in luck
I will have 5 MTR's with about 35K on them but still at least 25% tread left to go
even more on my spare ,spare
$10 each + shipping
free if you come pick up

please dont "jerk me around" on this if you want them
I dont want them sitting in my yard for a year so if you want them speak now

 

[dr_love2112]

where you located???

how much is shipping to 33050

I am in New Orleans ,70123

I dont work for UPS and I am not around the shop until Wed.
so I will not be able to talk to the shipping dept. and find out what the cost will be

my guess is maybe $20-$30 per tire

I had the Treadwright AT tires on mine for almost 10k miles. I loved them. Judging from the tread wear that I had, I would say they would have lasted a good 35-40k miles. Pretty good for the price. I only got rid of them because I got a really good deal on some larger 31x10.50's that I just couldn't pass up.

Look here to see my review of them:

Where do you go to get these treadwrights mounted?

I just called my local tire dealer adn he said they will not mount or balance a tire purchased outside the store. Exact words, "treat you like you have the plague"

I use a fellow that sells tires,works on vehicles,local,small business,he is glad to mount,balance,sell a valve stem.

Firestone mounted/balanced mine for me and their only gripe was whether they were 'new' or not, prior to that I've had them done at a non-chain shop.

Try places other than tire shops: your corner car repair shop, etc... Also, jump on craigslist & look for the used tire shops to contact them. There is a guy at 1st in Brenner in Dayton ( by Findlay ) that probably won't give you a problem. I have heard that Walmart is easy,, too.

screw walmart they will jump on any chance to not mount a tire from them. if its new they dont have a reason not to. but if its used then will try to get you for them being uneven. but to be honest he did direct me to another shop that dosnt have such policies.

I love these tires. During the snowstorm last week I only had to even drop it in 4Hi to actually get in and out of my driveway. Again, Love em. They do have a whine to them at about 30mph and above but I just turn the stereo up or even leave the stereo off and revel in the sound of a nice off road tire!!!

 

[uctke283]

I am putting my lift on next weekend, and then will wait a couple of days to let things settle out before I get them mounted and an alignment done.
