Discount Tire HOOKED me up! (PICS!)

Ok, So I finally had the money to order my Helo Maxx 6's and my Mickey Thompson MTZ's. But when I called around alot of ppl couldnt get the Helo's in. Then I got to Discount tire...

I walked in and I had my mind SET on these wheels and tires. I talked to the guy about them and he was gonna order them for me, and he called me back in about 20 minutes and told me that he had found some American racing wheels in the back that were a special order, but the guy never picked them up, and I came back up to look at them, and I fell in love with them. They had those wheels listed for about $240 a piece (20x8.5) he sold them to me for $130 a Piece!! I was kinda weary about getting 20's, cause I still wanted the muddin look, so I wanted to see an example, he took me in the back and showed me some Nitto Mud Grapplers for a sizing reference, so we started walking back and for chits and giggles, I asked how much those were, he said they had them listed at $340/tire, he said, "Buy three of them at $280/tire and I'll give a free one!" Needless to say I JUMPED on the offer. He also threw in all new lug nuts, and wheel polish/protector. I walked out the door paying about $1600. Can wait till my 6" fabtech, and my EDGE gets here!!!

The tires are 35/12.50/20, they were a special order as well, and was never picked up.

Good Score.

I had a great experience with Discount Tire Direct when I bought my wheels (I was not going to drive 2.5 hours to go to one of the stores).
