Tires---Ouch

If your not particular about what tire your running, the take offs are by far the best deal.

I went through Simple Tire and found for 265/70/18 which I assume close to your size, the Nitto G2 was 240 a tire, Toyo AT3 was 270 and Falcon Wildcat AT was 275. I found that I can buy these tires locally, installed at these prices, your mileage may vary. I have run or am running all of these. I think the Falcon is the better all around tire. The G2 for us lasted a long time, if Winters were not so brutal here, it could have went longer even.

Look at Toyo. Mine are about to age out. No problems for 7 years.

check craigslist or whatever you have locally. Out here there are always new vehicle takeoff offered and there also a lot of independent tire sellers. Yes I know the costs are high as I had a bridgestone with a slipped tread over $1000 to replace all on rear with 1 being adjusted out. Had a tire separation on my F350 a couple of years ago tore up the bed on truck, called bridgestone who recommeded I go to their tires since its used mainly on highway. Again over $1000 with all being adjusted out per the manuf with the shop.

SO just need to shop around or travel out your area for possible better deals.

How long can you wait? Another 3 or 4 years? It can only get worse.

Some financial dogs would suggest that you not buy new tires. The lack of demand will bring the price back down where you expect.

I am glad that I have been running a summer set and winter set on each of my vehicles, so I have a few years before I will need to buy again.
