Pro Comp black 7069, love how light weight there are at 16lbs, steelies are like 30lbs which is heavy as hell for 15".

Tires are Nankang FT7 31x10.50r15, don't seem to be popular stateside but lots of favorable stuff overseas. People even preferring them over BFGs. And their light as well, around 42lbs I think. I wanted Cooper AT3 but their damn near impossible to get and delays even when custom ordered.

Could pass this combo up, 889 from discount tire, mounted and balanced and shipped to house with gorilla lugs

Looks sweet the tread looks similar to hankook.
 






Yeah its a little similar. Not many reviews for these tires stateside, but I found stuff (some had to use google translate lol) of people using them overseas and lots of fans over the normal go to A/Ts especially for what they cost, and apparently have great mileage wear, ride etc as well. Have to do suspension/lift/tt hopefully this week, shackles just came in, so then I'll mount them.

That was a damn good price though, nobody else was close to that and if I ordered separately and had a place mount and balance locally was a couple hundred more dollars which is ridiculous. My bud owns a custom wheel place and said lots of times a combo like that or other nobody will beat discounttire especially being mounted and balanced and shipped to house.
