Tire Question

[stonemountain]

Where is my best bet for cheapest tire prices in/near Memphis?

What are the cheapest sites to use for price matching?

Either looking for 285/75/16 or 315/75/16 in Nitto Terra Grapplers, BFG A/Ts, Michelin DuraTracs (or suggest another All Terrain tire you like).

What do y'all think?

Big difference in tire size, David.

Bomar or Chris from 49Tire would be the peeps in the know about tires.

In memphis I use Gateway. I have bought some from 4 wheel parts. It was an ok experience.

Yes a big difference Jordan. Haven't decided on which tire to put with OME suspension lift.

Probably go with the more inexpensive route with 285s but keeping options open.

Go big....you will regret if you don't...

315 bfg at

Pm or call me..

Does yours have a lift already?

I'd go ahead and get the 315s, and I'd go ahead and get mud tars, too.... because they look cooler.

I've had pretty good luck with the BFG ATs/MTs. If you don't tear them up on the rocks, they last forever.

Cameron, it isn't lifted yet.

I was trying to be on the lookout for the best deal in tires I could find.

I have had great success with some BFG A/Ts on my 4Runner. The only thing is that the tread chunked in the rocks in Utah, but that would probably happen with any tire on the ledges I was going over.

Thanks for all your suggestions!

I will PM Bomar about the tires

FWIW, my mud terrains chunk less than the all terrains, since the lugs are bigger and harder to break off. However, in everything but mud, they seem to work the same.
