Finally!! New wheels on the way!!! Tires???

After owning my 150 for 6 months, I ordered my wheels on Friday. 18x9 XD Monsters with a +18mm offset in matte black. Awesome. 640$ shipped to my door from 4wheel parts. I know I know, 4wheel has had issues in the past but I'm going to trust them.....blindly. I should have went with rimzone but they couldn't match the price. Now....on to tires!!!

$640 shipped? very nice! Lowest deal I have seen on that exact wheel is $668 from Rimzone, I want those wheels.

The tires I want are the Cooper Discoverer STTs in 305/60/18, $252 a tire, a 32.6x12 dimension, and excellent reviews. Its basically a knock-off Toyo M/T thats just as good.



Edit:

Actually wait, how the hell did you get them shipped $640? I went on there and its $868.67 for them shipped?

In an earlier thread, a guy said he ordered 20's from Les Schwab for 150$ a wheel. I called LS and they wouldn't ship them for that price. I called Rimzone, 668$ shipped. I called 4wheel parts and said I can get them cheaper from 'X', and they said hold on...........guy comes back on the line and says 640$ shipped, I said OK!

Goodyear Wrangler Duratracs there an awesome tire not quite a mud terrain and a step above an all terrain and there great on the road. Just got back from driving 11 hours straight on them on the highway and there still seeming to impress me. Just a thought dont know what your going for exactly.

I dont know what size your looking for but if you have a leveling kit the 295/65-18's are a 33" tire and they run $240 each on tirerack.com

I need a 285 tire. I have no lift and I don't want to level it.
