What about these wheels?

[78 Chevyrado]

I think Im going to hurry up and get the wheels quick as i can. I went by the goodyear place and the guy quoted me 50% off the silent armors. They were $255 each. 265/70R18 for $126 each Screamin deal

My quotes good till Aug 12, so I gotta git-r-done!

i work for goodyear thos are good tires for what you intend on using the truck.but i gotta ask how did you get that kinda deal?
is that mounted and balanced?

Shure would look really cool with some BFG All Terrains on it. The Silent Armors are a decent tire but dont have any aggressive look to them like the wheels do. I had the same wheels and BFG's on my 02 Duramax truck and they looked mean and lasted about 60-65K before they needed replaced. Just thinking the wheels would look better with a more semi aggressive tire on them. Just my 2 cents. By the way, I love the look of your truck with those wheels on it.

I dunno... I just walked in ther, didnt ask for nothin special, he didnt say nothin special... IT came out to right at $700 for everything except the alignment...

I Don't think I'm gonna get those tires though... I changed my mind on the size, I can't decide between a 275/70R18 and a 285/65R18. The 285 is a tad wider, but the 275 is a tad taller. Plus the 275's are a lot cheaper and have more choices than the 285's.

The 275's should be 33.2" tall the 285's should be 32.6" tall.

I have been thinking about that.. I've been looking at the BFG AT's, Bridgestone Dueler A/T 695LT, And General Grabber AT2's. I've always wanted some BFG's its just never worked out that way.... They are a high possibility, I too have seen several people get high mileage out of them, and they just look GOOD.



What do you guys think?
