If you can get them that cheap, then buy the coopers... Even with the buy 3 get 1 free deal I got in on, and free shipping from a vendor I like to deal with, I still paid $840 for the tires.... then I paid more to have them mounted and balanced.

Yea the coopers are around $165 each for the 35's, but should I get them just because they are cheap? I can get BFG A/T for $180 (4wheelparts.com is having a sale) and the Nitto A/T for $175. I drive normal and mostly highway and some off-roading, but I'd like to have some tread to get out of the nasty Florida mud.

I would buy them.. but thats because I am cheap. On the other hand, I will NEVER buy from 4 wheel parts again. They lost my business for good when a tire order got screwed up. I ordered 4 blem 35's from them, and then they charged my credit card for them... Well, 2 weeks went by and I never got the tires, so I called... Turns out, they didn't have the blems in stock, but were more than willing to sell me a NEW set of 35's, for FULL retail, even though they are the ones that screwed up. I told them to pound sand, and **** off for charging my credit card, even though they didn't have the tires... then I told them to credit the card back THAT day, or the BBB would be hearing about this. It took them 3 days to credit my card.. and I ordered from somewhere else. I urge ANYONE I talk to, to NEVER deal with 4 wheel parts.

Wow, that is horrible, they should have sold you the brand new 35's for the same price you paid for the blems. That is what a good business would do, and then appologize for their mistake. It seems like no one really cares about the customer anymore.

Thats exactly it... I don't even care that they didn't offer to sell me the new ones for a discount.. I am just pissed that ANY business would charge a credit card before shipping out the items....

I would never buy from 4 Wheel Parts. I have been in a couple of them and have asked questions about programmers. I have found that they either don't know their product and/or they want to sell me something that cost alot more.

As for tires, I like BFG's alot better than Nitto's. I had a 1/2 ton before this truck I have now. I got 74k with the BFG's and only 52k on the Nitto's. Same truck and driving style.

Yea, a lot of people run BFG's and get incredible mileage. But since there's no way I am buying from 4wheelparts.com I have no clue how I could get a deal on those to since I will have to buy rims as well.

Does anyone know anything about the Hankook Dynapro MT, someone recommended them to me and I have read a lot about how good they are.

I've read nothing but good things about them however I believe it was member "scarecrow" had said he once had a set and was very disappointed. If he doesn't chime in maybe just PM him and ask.

Thanks, I didn't really know how they would fair on a full-size truck. I have seen them on an FJ forum and those guys really love them.

i mounted a set of 315-70-17 dynapro's on a dodge for a buddy of mine, paid 800 exactly shipped to me, good tires, rode well and lasted pretty good.....it was a 2003 2500 dodge with a cummins



the owner of 4wheel parts is Greg Adler, he is a *******, only way i will buy from them is that if they got it in stock from the store or are REALLY low on something. i go through national tire and wheel for 90% of my stuff.....
