yea the 16's are cheaper and summit is probably way cheaper the tirerack since they have to ship them.

I know I looked for some 16 inch 35's or 315's I should say and summit has em for like $200 a tire, but tirerack may have them cheaper, but gotta factor in their high shipping cost.

Tirerack is cheaper than summit when shipping winchester, va. I can get a set 265/75/16 same tire as above for 650 and summit wanted 770 thats after adding in shipping.

you can get them even cheaper in a different brand I done a quick search on both for a 265/75-16 and they were like $500 shipped from both places.

I perfer to stick with General Grabber AT2 tires. My second choice would be BF Goodrich.

Dave, going along with all of these other posts, I would get rid of the 16.5s and find a set of 16s. It would be well worth it in the long run, as after your second set of tires you're choice has already payed you back.

Here's a before and after picture of one of the rusty spots. I used liquid wrench and copper steel wool pad with no soak/sitting time before scrubbing.
