Are Mickey Thompson wheels quality?

I got the DR leveling kit waiting in the garage back in the states. Going to purchase33x12.50x18 toyo open country MT. I need some 18" wheels. Weld is really expensive, I have looked at Helo, but does anyone own some Mickey Thompson Classic II's? Any other suggestions for some 18" wheels on a 2005 V10 supercab long bed 4.30 gears???

Two and a half more months and Iraq is a memory baby!!

I had MTS's on my truck in the past and they are good tires. Only issue is for everyday highway driving the bias tires have a bit of sway as opposed to the radial's, which by the way they make now. Excellent traction and great looks.

I think you mis-read his post. He's looking at their WHEELS not TIRES. Don't know myself, I'm looking at Eagle 114's for my '06.

Had 16x8 M?T classic II on my last truck, 2500 series 89 sub. No problem with wheels, I clear coated them when first installed. But the caps are JUNK, rusted in 6 months BEFORE the winter salt hit. I bought stainless steel ones and it looked great.
Wheels seem strong, have a 3000 lb+ rating and have steel inserts at the lug holes. Best of all, they seem availible at low prices.
