Hi All,
Got a quote on 5 off Mickey Thompson ATZ 4-ribs (285/75/R16s) and 5 off black dynamics rims (16x8) for $2250 including wheel alignment. What are your thoughts on this as a price? Seemed pretty good to me but thought I'd check as the next best quote was $2400 and then $2800 (what the?!).
Jas
I think thats a good price mate. Thats what I paid for 5x BF KM2s on same rims ..same size
Not far off the money, this time last year I paid 1900 for the same but in 33x12.5x15 on 15x8 rims........
Don't stroke it, TAP it!!!!.....
That sounds good mate! those tyres are around the $350 to $375 fitted and balanced for that tyre size 285/75/16s. Rims are from $90 to $120 per rim. Wheel alignment for 4x4 $90 to $110. Your quote of $2,250.00 is on the money!Quote:

Hi mate - they quoted 340 per tyre and 100 per rim + 50 for the alignment. Bring it on! Next question - do I need the lift before the wheels?Quote:

Hi mate - thanks for that. Will I need another alignment after the lift though? Getting them both done in the next week or so - but wondered what makes more sense to do first? Or doesn't really matter?Quote:

Id get the wheels done 1st then do the alignment at the end after ur lift
Jas, If you spend all your money you won`t be able to afford Cape York!!! I will have to go in your place. Ha Ha.

Hey RLI - all good. I think Loren likes the mods just as much. Has been pushing me to make it a little less stock and more "mean" in her words. New wheels and tyres today. Had to remove the mud flaps on the front as they were rubbing at full lock. But they look great and are pretty quiet too. Ended up with the Mickey Thompson LT285/75R16 and black rims.
Photos soon.
Jas
I had the same prob when i put my muddies on, full lock and ripped my mudflaps off.
I modified mine and not a prob since

Really happy with the new Mickey Thompson 4 rib ATZs and wheels. Pics below:

Jas
