Cant decide, beating my head against a wall!

Tossing a 2" level on soon. Maybe today. I dont NEED new tires just yet. Stock 265/65/18s. Get the summer out of em for sure, but want new for the winter. i planned on stepping up to a Cooper AT3 265/70/18, but having a bit of trouble finding em local. Although I havent put a ton of effort into finding them. Looking today online and found a sale of BFG All terrain TA KO in a 285/65/18 for $149 a tire. I sorta wanted to stay away from the heavy tires. These are only 8/D vs E, but still obviously more then P. But this almost seems like too good a deal to pass on. I could always swap em on now, sell my current tires for $200. Or should I wait and find the Coopers? ARGGGG, so torn.

 

Will I hate my life with the 285s? i just dont want to pass on the great KO deal, knowing everyone talks so highly of the tires.

 

Did I mention ARRRGGG!!

Sure seems like a smoking deal on the BFG's and not to mention their good tires. I wouldn't hesitate to pull the trigger on them, getting a great set of tires for that kind of money should have ya smiling for a long time. :-)

My vote is for the BFG's! I went through two sets of these on my old Colorado. Absolutely loved them. Great in winter and nice smooth ride. Plus thats a smokin deal..

Well that didn't take much arm twisting lol, but at that price it wouldn've took much for me either. Congrats on the new shoes.

[Roscopcoletrain]

Thanks! Looking forward to the new look!

[wages999]

Great deal. Would you mind sharing the website you got them from? Thanks

[gnet158]

x2, I'll buy a set now.

[kstruckcountry]

Where did they have them for that price? If the 17's are on sale too I'll pick up a set in advance

[Silverado4x4]

Yeah 149 bucks a tire, how much did they soak you on the shipping? At that price for that size tire I would fear that something is up like old tires, blems, high shipping cost etc.

i put 285/70/17's on my 2003 4.8 and i didnt notice that much of a difference... good thing you got the tires, definatley worth it

[Roscopcoletrain]

Its a CDN shop. Not to sound like an A$$, but they're listed as limited stock. They were closed yesterday for Canada Day. Once I know my order has been completed I'll toss up the site. Hope you understand.

 

 

Also, 2" level is now on looks great IMO. I booked in for an alignment today. She drives straight as an arrow though, not sure I need it, but I suppose, best to be safe.

 

[Roscopcoletrain]

Well, was too good to be true. They just called back. They only have one in stock. There goes that idea. Lol Website is tiretrends.com

 

Maybe I'll look harder for the Coopers

wow wow wow, Cooper Discoverer AT3s are not cheap locally! Called two shops, $265 & $326 were the prices I got per tire.

 

Discount tire direct has a 275/65/18 for $160/tire. 4 with taxes, shipping and duty/brokerage fees, $880. A lot better. Still might wait till fall to order. Hate choices lol

 

 

Also my alignment was way out. Truck drove straight as can be, no pulling to either side.
