my tires have had it... i need new ones, don't want to spend too much (duh)

what kind should i get and WHO HAS THE BEST DEALS? can any of you get me a deal.
i will do used tires... but not too used (duh)

i would like 36's and up
they need to be for a 15" rim and i would rather have a skinnier tire like a 12.50 to save weight cause i am running d44s, but i could run wider and be easier on the skinny pedal :D

thanks

Iroks...cheap(er) and light...

yeah but they are on backorder and crap...
plus, the choices are 36's or 39.5's, i would like 37's or 38's... best size compromise for my axles i think. 39.5's seem kinda big for my d44s, but maybe i am wrong??? :-\
the 36s are 165 bucks on 4wheelparts.com and the 39.5s are 250 bucks

weird that 3" cost 85 bucks!!!!

i would like to spend as little as possible because i have other mods i want to do like rock ram and other junk.

p.s. you can sell me your iroks for cheap (when/if you get them)... also, i think you are crazy for getting rid of the buggy :ugh:

Listen man, these tires get great reviews and are CHEAP CHEAP CHEAP...lots of 4x4 people swear by them and think their all terain is better than the bfg and that their mud is better than the mtr. They have had smoe really good reviews on pirate and on some other 4x4 web sites..give them a try. These are what i'm buying when i put some tires under my sammy next time.

I have got to tell you I am running the IROKS and love them
I also have 44s under my cj and have had zero issues with them
and the 36in tires acually messure out at 37 in

They are very sticky tires great for the rocks but only have a 10000 mile rating for the streeet before they are bald.

I bought a trailor and feel their offroad performance is worth it!

Ditto. I'm running the 36" IROKS on my Sami, Best dam n tire I have ever had. Not trying to advertise but call 801-776-5560 and see what the wait is on the IROK's (this is where I purchased mine) also try SukaB.

i was wondering how they were working out for you because we both have d44s and i imagine our rigs being close in weight. pretty good comparison imo

i would love to get new irocs, but 4wheelparts has them for 171 a piece and that is too much right now. if i could get them at 150 (less would be even better) a piece that would help me in buying some used 15x8 steelies and putting diy beadlocks on them... every cent i save on the tires will go to the wheels and beadlocks.

i would love new tires, but used ones are fine as long as i don't sacrifice what i want just to save $$$
