I need to buy some tires for the lightning. 295/45/18 are what I need.
Any of these tires will do. Need them for a 2nd set of rims I picked up. Looking for something cheap right now. Going to put Good Year Eagle F1s back on my factory rims. But would like a set for the chromes IO have on the truck now.

So if anyone know where I can any of these 3 sets of tires at a good price please let me know.
Toyo Tires - Proxes S/T
Hankook RH06 Tire
Nitto NT555 Tire

 

I bought Nitto 555R's in June of '07 for my '03 L @ DiscountTireDirect.com for $196 each. I think they're down to like $191 each now or so, plus free shipping.

 

ebay is your friend!

 

Tread Depot (www.treadepot.com) has TOYO PROXES S/T
295/45R18 for $181/ea. I've run through two sets of them and like them for my daily driver (213,000 miles). They work good in the wet for the first two years until they get hard.

I've run through 2 sets of F1's, too, and they seem to run out of bite sooner than the Toyo's. Again, I need good all around traction. I run Blizzaks in the winter.

 

my f1's did not hold up well at all... its a great tire as far as performance and design but too soft too last.... plus i kept on having flats with them.. i've got nitto555r's on now and like them quite a bit... they are cheaper, just as good looking(if not better IMO), and they last longer... and i couldnt notice a difference in noise or handling and performance... they only problem i have with nitto is rain..... they get very slippery when it rains so i just have to go slow when its wet....... no biggie..

 

sorry off topic...are you the guy I gave my hard bed liner to? if so I found 2 pieces that I forgot to give to you if you want them. the 2 plastic peices i think that go by the bed tie downs.
