Ordered new tires!

New tires should be here next Wednesday. I ordered the Trail Grapplers in 35x12.50/20. Should look pretty slick.

If anyone is interested, I have the other tires for sale.

1 year old set of Cooper Zeon LTZ (305/55/20) with about 10,000 miles. Front 2 are like new and rear 2 are 2/3-3/4 tread. Great set of tires, just wanted 35s instead of 33s.

I'll post pics once I get em swapped.
Andrew

Cooper tires located in Altoona, Ia. Shipping available.

NICE What am I doing wrong. Ordered XD wheels and Trail Grapplers 2 months ago and they have not yet arrived from the factory. this is what I'm being told. The wheels are the problem, not the tires. But I think they are worth the wait.

Does anyone know what tires are best for all terrain for 20" wheels that will not require spacer, lift, or impact the speedometer?

I ask because like many I want a more aggressive tire than the stock Michelins but I do not want to sacrifice capability. Many 6.7 owners here have already taken the plunge with suspension mods and I just can't see the benefit other than looks. Any input would be appreciated.

The Coopers I'm taking off are exactly what you're looking for.

Great traction, didn't affect the speedo on my truck, and no suspension mods required.

Honestly, I wish Cooper made this tire in a 35-37 and I would have bought it. The Trail Grappler should be a good tire but this Cooper tire will last longer and be a bit quieter.

If you're interested shoot me a PM. The Cooper tires I have are in great shape, less than 10,000 miles on them. I just wanted something bigger.

The tires on your 20" wheels are 35" +/- so as long as you buy 35" tires it wont affect speedo to a noticable difference. As to an agressive tire, depends on your defininition of agressive. I ordered the Nitto Trail grapplers. There is also a terra grappler, there is BFGoodrich All terains KO and mud terrains. Some guys swear by Firestone Destination A/T and M/T. Lolts of choices. Do some searching on this forum on tires and you will get a lot of threads. Good luck.
