Dura grappplers

A set of 285/75/17 Nitto Dura grapplers would get you to 3970lbs per tire without the extra cost of new rims.

My OEM pump lasted 81,000 miles. I replaced the warranty pump with a Napa this past weekend at 152,280 miles. No big failure on the warranty pump, just started dripping.

I also picked up 6 gallons yesterday. My receipt said I saved $102 off the regular price. I usually pay the same price for 15-40 Delvac at walmart. It is a great deal on 5-40 synthetic.
