[Boggin]

well tomorrows the day! cant wait to get her home.

(4) 32x11.50R15 Pro Comp a/ts are 900 shipped. thats what im gonna go for when i get a set of tires, i might slap the bald 31s on her just for now.

 

[Andres629]

If I can do anything at all to sway you from the Pro-Comp A/T's, that's what I'll do. They are a cheap tire yes, but they are useless in anything, including an inch of snow. Dad had them on a truck when he bought it, they had 15,xxx KM on them and they were worse than the BFG Land Terrains on his 2WD diesel work truck. He got stuck on a farming road in 4WD after it rained... it only rained 3mm. After that he took them off and whatever he got next was worlds better. I dunno man, just research your options, it sucks spending money on stuff then hating it!

 

[Boggin]

well that doesnt sound good. anybody else? not that i dont trust you but several opinions are great too. how about bfg a/ts?

 

[BlackBII]

How much is shipping?

Seems like a good set of BFG AT 32's would fetch around $600 or so without shipping. BFG AT's are awesome IMO.

 

[Boggin]

that sounds better! shipping on the pro comps were around 250 so i assume the same for bfgs

 

[Boggin]

If i go with the BFG a/ts i will be getting the 33x10.50s which are exactly 20 dollars cheaper for all 4, so they are $954 shipped. should they be ok in snow?
