I Need New Rubbers...

[Venom Power]

Yeah that’s right just like the title says. It’s about that time that I get some new rubbers; preferably OEM Pirelli Scorpions. Anybody know where online I can find them being sold the cheapest? :idea: I wanna go use the add to price match at NTB or Discount Tire. WHAT!? :dontknow: What did you think I was talking about?

Tire Rack is a vendor on here and I think they have the best price going on them rubbers...

Have to agree with TYF. Support our vendors. They keep this place going.

what does it cost per tire?
and remember mount and balance

 

[Wifey]

Maybe they come in ribbed :dontknow:

When I got mine about a month ago they were %182 a piece. Pretty cheap really. Then took them to the dealer and had them mount and ballance them. I believe it was 25 bucks or so for mount and ballance. I don't think I would trust many other places mounting tires on our rims.

WOW! That's a great price from the dealer! My dealer charged me $35/mount and $60 to Road Force Balance them!! Then I went across the street bought 4 new wheels and had it done again... :banghead: (not by the dealer though)

Are the pirelli's any better now? My truck came with two that were out of round. They are the best price tire through the tire rack. Costco has the BF Goodrich for $358 ea. out the door including road hazard. Tread wear is only 300 so they won't last as long as the pirelli's.:idea:

 

[eddie102870]

im not going back with pirelli's have had nothing but trouble trying to get them and keep them balanced, really liked the tread pattern on the b goodwrench kdw's

Phil (Big Asp) tried out the KDW's and didn't like them to much if I remember right. Less traction and the tread width was slighly less than the Pirellis. The Pirellis are a very square shouldered tire which increases the tread width for the tire size.

Just something to think about.

Just put those on my wife's FX. They look nice, but I had to go from a 265 to a 295 to get the same amount of rubber on the road.

Do you drive yours in the rain? If so how do you like them in the rain. The Pirellis hydroplane if you hit week old spit at anything over 60mph.

How much were the Toyos?
