Tires/wheels ordered!

A little background here

https://www.ranger-forums.com/forum2...ad.php?t=25564

Summit matched and even went lower on the tires, their wheels were already cheaper. Total including shipping, without mounting and balancing was $933

I ordered them.

I get the security of ordering from a company with a good rep that has an 800 number and opened 24 hours. They will be here in 2-3 business days. Can't wait!

32x11.5x15 BFG-ATs on 15x8 MT Classic II's

I dont know much about rims and tires, but how come those m/t's classic II's are so damn cheap? And how do they last? I think I'm gonna get the same setup as Buzzair if I can get a deal like that! Not to copy or nuthin!!!!!

I have heard nothing but good about the MT Classic II's. Especially if you keep them clean, they will look new for a while! I just ordered the same setup he did, except I got mine from tirepackage.com. Both places would be great to order from, but like he said he has the comfort of knowing Summit has an awesome rep, me however, I am just putting my faith with tirepackage.com with the lifetime warranty and free shipping with a bit cheaper price tag mounted and balanced. Some people say mounted and balanced away from home is a bad thing. The way I see it is if it's free I can always have them rebalanced at a local shop for 5 bucks a tire, however if I had them mounted and balanced here it would be closer to 15 bucks a tire. Saving money either way I see it!
