I just ordered Cooper Zeon LTZ's to go on my 10 spoke 18" SE rims. Got them at Dicount Tire, 285 60 18 for $605 all four fitted, balanced, with lifetime rotations out the door. That includes tax!

They matched the price I found for them at www.treadepot.com and actually beat it by $20!

I will post pictures when I have them put on later today or tomorrow.

Just replaced the factory Goodyear tires with a set of Nokian WRG2 and couldn't be happier. I live in Denver and wanted an all season that would perform well in the snow. Last week we got 27" and these tires were awesome. I just wanted to drive around and see if I could get stuck.

Did they match the price + shipping?? or just match the price? i am thinking I will go with those as well, they are $121 on treadepot and $173 at discount tire...I've had the Nitto Terra Grapplers but want to try something new and these look pretty good.

I emailed them and gave them the website, told them I would go with them if they could beat my out the door price of $620 ($121 x 4 plus $88 shipping) if I ordered from treadepot and had them put them on at their store, which they charge $14.99 per tire plus tax for. They ended up giving me a tire price of $127 x 4 plus 59 for install and balancing equals $567 plus 7% IN sales tax put me at $606 out the door.

Here are some pics of my new rig, I am very pleased with performance and the look of these on the LR3:
















All pics taken in Off Road mode.

Thanks for the information AGConrad!

After a lot of deliberation, and procrastination, I just called Discount Tire and ordered them (Cooper Zeon LTZ 285/60/18) over the phone. They are being shipped to a Mr. Tire (one of their authorized installers) near me which should take approximately 8 days. The rep had to order them directly from Cooper as they don't have that model/size in stock.

My pleasure Sully! Post some pics when you get them installed! Before and after are awesome going from stock to these tires...

drzjoint, I live in Mishawaka. I was up in the UP in June of this year but did not do any offroading...I was to busy nailing Walleye at Big Manistique Lake!

I will definitely let you know if I am heading up there again, although I doubt it will be for a while.

Just tried to order from Discount Tire and I was told they are no longer being made and had a Falken pushed onto me.
