Re: 33\' Tires
I would love to know what kind of lift you are getting to fit 33 foot tires
Now, seriously, the mail order is always cheaper as a general rule. I looked at 4WPH and they told me that if I ordered tires and rims from them they would give me the mounting, balancing, and road hazard warranty. They said that if a tire was not balanced they would foot the bill for my local shop to do the balancing. I do not trust 4WPH as a general rule b/c there sales people are tooeager to make a sale. I was in sales for 5 years and these people must be getting commision cause they are pirhanas. If you call and ask them several questions about the tire and rim package tell them right off that you are only asking questions and it will be a few weeks till you order. They usually give you the brush off. At any rate, take the magazine prices to your local tire shop and see if they will match, beat, or get close to the magazine price. If so, you got your tires locally and will never have to pay shipping to send a defective tire back. I am buying BFG. MT's. I got a local shop to match price from Costco, like a Sam's club, and then took the local tire dealers printout to Wal-Mart. Wal-Mart matches competitors prices, as long as the competitor is not a wholesaler, within a 30 mile radius of their store. Now, I got my BFG's at Wal-Mart so when I wheel and knock the balance out I can go to the nearest Wal-Mart and have them rebalanced, rotated, repaired, whatever, for free. Ta Da Just shop around and you can usually make a good deal when buying new tires. Good Luck
PS. I know that you spell Wholesalers with a W, I used 4WPH b/c I think that is the way there ad spells it, with an H. May be wrong though. And I do NOT know how to spell pirhana, anyone know if I got it right.
