Re: The 255/70/15 Database

Tires showed up yesterday. Dropped off the rims and tires at local tire shop for mounting and balancing.

The crazy thing is that the date codes on the tires showed that they were made about a week ago. I guess nothing gathers dust @ Discount tire!

Hope to have pics sometime this weekend.

Re: The 255/70/15 Database

Mmmmmm... New tires.....



Bye-bye farm-truck!



It was pouring rain outside, so the the first tire got mounted up in the shop!



Later on it quit raining so we could get some pics out in the evening sun.





Getting "artsy". LOL



As you can see, this truck was a North Dakota farm truck in a previous life, so it's got some bumps and bruises. None of that is getting fixed as it tells the story of where this truck has been for the past 48 years!

Grear choice for rims, tires and hubcaps. The truck wears them well..

Re: The 255/70/15 Database

The new rally and coopers look so much better than the narrow OE dog dish wheel and tire combo I took off. Now that it has power steering, the wide tires were a possible upgrade. I think my kids are ready to get their license so they can start driving it more.

I have cooper cobras on mine found them locally. They are a good tire but are a bit noisy on certain roads.
