Default Need helping finding tires for a decent price

Hello everyone, I have been lurking for a long time but finally have a question that I thought you guys could help me with.

I am in the market for new tires on my truck and I was wondering if anyone had any websites and/or recommendations on where to look? I have searched far and low on the Google's to find something for a decent price. I am looking at 3 tires, specifically, for the overall quality and look. I believe I'm just going to have to bite the bullet and spend about $1,000 for a set of 4, but I was hoping to maybe get some information as to where to find these at a better price. I have seen posts on here where people have gotten the BFG's for in the low to middle $200's, but I can't seem to find them anywhere!

The size I am looking for is 275/65r20, as I am going to keep my stock wheel. Currently I have a 2008 F150 Lariat 4x4 with 20 inch wheels and Pirelli Scorpion tires.

Current truck:


I am looking for the following tires, but I can't seem to find them at a price that is decent. Have any of you had experience with any of these tires?

First tire: BFGoodrich All Terrain KO - The lowest I have found these are $293 via Sears.com



Second Tire: Good Year DuraTrac - Lowest price I've found is $312 via Sears as well.



Third Tire: Nitto Terra Grappler - Lowest 240 via tirebuyer.com

I use CHabills around here, and get the 275/70-18 TA KOs for 220ea. Worth an online trip if you have a chabills near you. I do know if you order them online they will usually match other internet prices, and set the appointment with store for you.

The last pic is the Dura Grappler, not the Terra. The Dura is strictly a highway tire.

Remember, when buying on-line... the savings may not be as good as you think. Local purchase at most places includes lifetime rotation and balance. Figure the cost of 9 or ten of those services onto the online price and then check the cost.

Wow, that's a GREAT price, I wish they still had it. They're currently $281 from Discount tires.

That's a very good point. I set an appointment up with my local NTB since they give a military discount. I appreciate the feedback!

I noticed that after I posted. My fault for putting up the wrong picture.
