LOL! I just put a pair of On-Road only Michelins. They ARE as aggressive as a church mouse after all.. But it don't matter none. With Ferman's help the Duramax will surely machine these off in due time..
Them look good on there ssired

Tires have gotten outrageous. Cost me a grand to put my new 285 cooper on the tahoe. And I went a cheaper route. Its gotten crazy. It aint hard to drop 12to1500 on a set.

They're some aggresive lookin tires there! Son in law bought a set of Toyo road tires for his Tundra and he loves them.

[phatdaddy]

stinks right, i just bought a set of nexen's for my work truck. load range f 10 ply. they were the cheapest i could find @ $600. seven years ago i paid $675 for the same size michelins.

The excuse has been the increased cost of energy... fuel, transportation, manufacturing, etc. Funny how gas has decreased by over a third in the last several months, but I haven't seen a single price decrease in anything else...
I'm sure it's just a mistake and everything will soon decrease in price to keep up with the lower cost of energy now.

(Gas station near me is now selling reg grade gas, cash price of $2.49 a gal., down from $3.45 about 4 months ago).

Don't get me started.... 7 bfg 255/86r16 load range E MT's on my truck ain't cheap!

Yea anything petroleum-based they gonna try and get a mint for.....

My buddy put these tires on for me. It was basically the same crappy Mich's for right at 1k or I could get these for $200 more OTD. It was a no-brainer for me once we passed the 1k mark....lotta cash to shell out, I hate it but needed it.....
