Is there a good place to get after market wheels and tire packages online? My stock set of mud terrains have done well but it's time for new shoes, thinking about ditching the rubicon wheels as well.

I'm a fan of Discount Tire Direct. They're a sponsor, give a discount to members, offer a good selection and will mount and balance whatever you choose.

Discount Tire for me also, but I use my local stores in whatever state I happen to be in. They are good about price matching if you find it lower, and I like having the nationwide balance/rotate/road hazard.

Discount tire direct will ship it right to your house. If you choose thier additional Road hazard and ever have and issue they will also ship you out a new tire for free nation wide (If you cant make it to a store)
If you find it somewhere cheaper call them up and find out they can do.

Are they really a sponsor here?

x4 on Discount Tire Direct. I bought a tire/wheel package (balanced and shipped to my door - the local Discount Tire said they would re-balance if I had problems) from them last month and it was the best deal I could find at the time. Besides the forum discount, they were willing to also beat the price of the lowest competitor. Give RJ (at ext. 51823) at DTD a call to see what they'll do.

I used Tire Rack.com for mine, but wont do it again. Cost me an arm and a leg to have them mounted and balanced because I didnt buy them from a shop here locally and was told by a couple that they wouldnt even touch them. Plus, i ended up switching the wheel sout a month later because i didnt like them. Sooo, i would go with a local shop or check your local Craigslist for deals.

Myself most the other vendors here can get put a tire and wheel package together for you, mounted, balanced and delivered to your door.

Just shoot one us a PM and let us know what you're looking for.
