Default Luck...Bad then Good!!!

Well I'll keep this short and sweet. While I was cleaning up my truck this past weekend I noticed that my tires (Stock Perrilli 275/55/20's) were starting to dry rot around the bead of the tire, on all 4 tires. A couple of them had even started cracking on the sidewalls. My truck had about 9600 miles on it when I noticed it. So I called up the dealer where I got it and they said bring it in so when can look at your tires, so I headed out there, the service manager bent down and looked for a sec and stood up and said " Yep, they need to be replaced" So he sent me to the warranty rep and after a few minutes of talking to him and explaining that I would rather not put Perrilli's back on it. He said that's fine just let me know what you want and if you want something that costs a little more you can just cover the difference. I said ok.

So now I'm getting a set of 275/60/20's BF Goodrich Rugged Terrains for $50!

I will post pics when I get them put on friday.

got them put on today! here is a couple of quick pics. I'll post some more when I clean my truck up tomorrow.
They ride really good, they aren't noisy at all, and they definitely look 10x better. Best $50 ever!
