Tires tires tires...

Anyone run a set of pro-comp extreme all-terrains?

I love the way they look... but dont want to get them until i know they dont suck.

and i should already know, considered I worked at the only pro-comp dealer in town. except for 4-wheel parts.


Anyways.

I want some. Just waiting on that 265/75/16 to become available.

I've heard great things - only problem is they only come in sizes for full-size trucks and big rims.

31x10.50s are available now....


Those, and the 265/75/16 are being made in china, so since those are available now, they will probably start having more normal sizes...

I dont have the extreme A/Ts but the MTs. For some reason, my MTs sized at 265/75/16 look rather small when compared to other 265/75/16 tires. They are not over-inflated as I have tried deflating them to around 28 psi and they looked the same.

4 Wheel parts has this awsome deal every now and then, you buy 3 tires at full price and get a 4th one free. Works out to be a tad cheaper than buying 4 at their normal "discounted" price. I like to buy tires from America's Tire/discount Tire because they offer free balancing and rotations for life of the tires that you purchase. In addition to that, they are located all throughout california so I can always find one if the hits the fan. They price match, so when 4 wheel parts has their promotion going on, go to discount tire and tell them and they will match the price but provide better service imo.
