Damn that sucks dude. Where you gettin your tires at? I need to get some tires on my new rims and so far the cheapest I have found is almost 700 for 275/55 R18 Toyo Proxes S/T with road hazard.

yeah, its a bummer....but your right 02bluestepside it will be worth it.

1slow01z71...i got these tires from selecttire.com....i dont know if they carry toyo or not....but if you havent seen any kumho stx you should take a look at some...the pics do not to it justice to how much tread you have....they are very deep ...looks like a all terain almost....im very pleased with them.and they are v speed rated..and i havent even got them on the truck yet....but i think that tirerack.com ....carries toyo...but selecttire.com...is cheaper than tirerack.com on everything

4- 275/45/20's to my door was $507...cant beat that.....i asked the guys who were putting my tires on...before the wheel mixup how much they sold those tire for and he told me 690 a set....i imagine 18's would be a little cheaper they make a 285/60/18 its 108 a tire....265/60/18 and it is 104....
