Lift?

Check Lucky8 LLC for the lift. Offroad tires for $100 each are near about impossible unless you go retread or used. Check Treadwright for decent retread tires. Other than that, expect to spend at least $200 per tire especially on the 18" rims you have.I just dropped $1,700 for 32.3" Hankook mud tires. Would have been much less if I had 16" rims.

I'd say that anything you buy in that price range is going to be a waste. The upper end of your lift price range might be able to get you something modest that would last, but with these trucks you want something that is going to hold up. Everyone has their own opinions, but the most common and effective suspension kits are going to be RTE, OME, and TerraFirma, from most expensive to least. For tires, $100 each is wishful thinking, especially on 18" rims. I like to run the TreadWright Guard Dogs. They're retreads, but awesome tires for the price. I paid $114 each for 245/75/16's.

Thank y'all for the replies. I have carefully been looking at what y'all said and researched based on your thoughts. My tires are very close to bald, so I will be getting some shortly, with a little financial help from my dad, since I am still in high school.
I love to off road and did a few times with friends and my dad with my old disco (which was lifted with some Grabber AT2s).
Also, I am hoping (fingers crossed) to get some money for my graduation this spring in order to buy a lift, I'm going to save up and get the right thing other than a cheap alternative.

Check Craigslist every day, used wheels and tires show up occasionally but you have to act fast because they get sold fast. A couple of weeks ago I saw a set of 4 16"s with tires for $250. I wasn't interested because I use mine on the street and the occasional snow if I go over the pass in the winter. I have my Series for offroad stuff
Onroad, Offroad, and dog for both.
