Good deal, I bought Blemished Michelins LTX in 2003 for the wife's Tahoe. It was around $750 mounted & balanced. No such deal today.

I saw Pete's pics but none on your post, besides your avitar.

I can hear a Jeff Foxworthy joke right now....If you smoke your old tires right before buying your new ones and take pictures for your buddies to see.....

And you southern boys thought you had the market on rednecks cornered (the second pic is the coolest)

the rear goes first because they are the ones that smoke the most
bad joke, but it was 1:30 in they morning....

Thanks RW. Ferm,nice video. With the kind of power that Duramax puts out I figure you would be able to really roast those tires. I sat and held my truck in one spot for at least ten seconds before I let her go. It left a pile of shredded rubber on the pavement. I wish I had timed this tire change better. I would of signed up for a burn out contest at one of those import car shows or something. They have one every year when I go to waterfest. Its pretty funny.

Phat I am blonde, therefore it is sometimes necessary to spell it out 100%. I thought... and that was my first mistake.

I would like to know where Ferm got the deal on the Michelins. That is the exact tire I need for my D-max PU. Was this a brother-in-law deal or is my local dealer just killing me with his mark-up?

I just tires on my 98 F-150 for the 1st time, It had 162,000 on those tires (same ones that came on it when I bought it brand new) The spare is still under the truck never hit the ground.
