Yesterday I ordered 4 37" MT/Rs from discount tire direct, and I check my mail today and They have informed me that the MT/R is on national back order and they won't be availible for 10-12weeks. SSOOO, I need some new tires and would like the MT/Rs but looks like thats out of the ? for now. Might just go up in wheel size and snag a 37" BFG....

I don't know....this sucks....

check, Tirerack.com, I think it is and just see what they have. I think it's them that seemed to have the best prices, last time I was looking.

Well the thing was GY was on a national back order for the 37" MT/R but not the 35" so I just went ahead and got the 35's. Right now my IROKS measure 35 1/4 and I am pleased with the power and gas mileage at that size so I will just stick with that.

Discount tire direct has the best prices overall, but be sure it's discount tire direct .com and not discount tire .com, there is a huge price difference between the two, and direct has free shipping.

I am more concerned with the ride quaility, duribility, and life of tire than offroad capabilities. My truck is on the road ten times more than off so you can kinda see where I am going with this. From looking around I belive the MT/R is the best for what I am looking for. Anyway thanks for lookin out.

They are the same company. When you are on the discount tire site you can click onto the discount tire direct link. When I ordered the 35's I used the same site discount tire direct and had the local discount tire mount and balance them. At the time I got free shipping and mounting. Balancing was $40. They are also the only company I have found that has a free replacement for the cost of the competitor’s road hazard plan.

Yea thats what I was thinkin, but if you check both sites there is a huge price difference. Either way like my post before I went ahead and got the 35's so we will see how they pan out, but if not impressed then I will have 2 connections for tires. Thanks for the heads up guys!
