i order my tires from summitracing. they never charged me shipping, except a $10 packaging fee or something. They price match anyone too so find the cheapest and ask them to beat it.

I thnk im going to go with the US wheels 70 series aka wagon wheels. But when i get them im probably going to get them stripped and powder coated black. Oh and what kind of backspacing you think i should run? I dont care if they stick out or not. Its also getting a 6.5 RC lift....

i can get the new bfgoodrich km2's shipped to my house for $804 from tirerack.com. try that, they are great tires. i know several guys running them. not bad in my opinion for 35's.

That is a good price but if Summit will price match the ones i found on ebay i will probably go with them. So the KM2s are they a decent tire? I was gonna go with 33s and get the Firestone Destination M/Ts seein as how i work for Firestone and can get a great deal on them. But the price recently went way up on them and they are about the same as the 35s i found will be....

Its a ebay store so maybe ill have to call and find out. If it was a private seller i would say they would definatley not. But either way i do it its not a bad price. But what do you guys think about those particular tires?

the bfg km2's are great. do a search for them on google and search for the brand and model's reviews. i think tirerack does reviews on their website. it get good reviews anywhere you look. check em out. they're the next tires i'm getting.

I have always had good luck dealing with 4wheel parts wholesalers.. get the best deal somewhere else,then call them and tell them what kind of deal so and so gave you and they will beat it. I got my iroks to my door with their trail warranty... to my door for 1300
