Should I be mad?

I ordered 4, 33x12.50R15 TSL Radials BUT its shows I ordered 2 36x12.50R15 and 2 33x12.50R15 so should I be mad that I'm getting a bigger size tire for the same price as a smaller one?

yeah I just thought about. 2 different tire sizes + 4x4 = Bad one
Then I would probably have to lift the truck more to

So did they actually send you two different sets of tires, or does it just say that on the statement?

I would call and see whats going on.

Well, hows this for a deal. Have them send you the rest of the set of 36's, drive them over to Virginia and I'll trade you out with a set of 33 swampers plus and extra worn out set of 33 swamper SX's for those 36's!

I'd keep the 36's, maybe trim the fenders a little.

They will probably just charge your credit card for the higher priced tires because you actually received them. I would return them on their dime and pickup slip and order tires from a better place.

Your truck will need a 6 inch lift and trim front fenders and bumper corners. I messed up a brand new set of 36 swamper radials on my old 93 F-150. I trimmed fender with a saw, but not enough and went wheelin and cut the crap out of the fronts . There tall for 36's, alot taller than a 35 bfg.
