Finally pulled the trigger and purchased 255/70/16 Copper AT3 tires for my 03'.

Can't wait to get the 18" Hurricanes off and the terrible run flats that have been on since I purchased. The ride is so ruff with the Michelin run flats that it shakes the filling out of your teeth.

I purchased them through the Treaddepot for $124.00each. Cooper has a $75 dollar rebate visa card they'll send in about 2 years I'm sure.

I'll let everyone know if my ride improves or I'll need to tell the wife some new springs and shocks are in order, might tell her that anyways just to get a 2 inch lift.

The only problem is I tore into the engine the other night to get rid of my tick. Lifters and cam look good, Going to pull the front cover and look at the oil pump before I yank the engine and replace the block as a final measure. I just couldn't deal with the tick anymore, kind of embarrassing as I'm sure many of you share the same feelings. Just couldn't see myself on a trail with that sound, heck it would scare the animals away.

Hope my wife doesn't steal my new wheels for her 04'!!!!
