I saved for a few months and was going to do the rickson wheels and tires last year. Just as I was ready to pull the trigger I read about the nexen tires. I ended up going with the Nexen Roadian CT8 HL LT225/75R-16 from simple tire. I found a 10% coupon online and got 7 of them for $831, shipping was free. I had just under $200 in mounting and balance and I still have the original 8k mile michelins to sell. So for $1000 I got a higher load rating tire. I have put about 2000 miles or so on them so far and they are working fine.
I took the other couple thousand bucks I had saved and put it into more mods for my Jeep Wrangler...
This thread has more info on them.
