The tires and rims look great. Many thanks to this website.
You just saved me some money. The dealer I was trying to deal with was trying to charge me a ton of $$. After reading your post I remembered that there is a 4 wheel parts about an hour and half from here. They were way cheaper! THANKS!

Good luck gettting through to a voice at the michelin factory

I tried a long time and just decided to go to there website and find a authorized dealer and went there. GLAD I did to. I wasnt held to the restrictions of the tards at the SEAR roebucks folks. The tire place I chose allowed me to get what I wanted.

Might try that because I believe all Michelin is going to tell you is to go the a dealer and have it checked out before they issue a claim.

Could possibly save yo usome time.

So they won't just credit you for the 265's, and let you pay the difference for 285's??

Has anyone tried this in the DFW area? Plus I already have almost 11,000 miles on them so they probably won't give me %100 back. Any thoughts?

If there is someone that is getting their tires replace from michellin and does not want 285's........like if you are wanting to get a set of 315's or 325's I would be willing to buy your 285's from you. Let me know if you are interested.

At 4WheelParts they said to pick out any tire I wanted. Hell, since I was buying rims I could have gotten 18's or whatever I wanted. Michelin authorized a store credit for the price 4WheelParts sold them for. I think it was $202 apiece. Alvin was the name of the guy at Michelin the store rep dealt with.

I tried to get Sears to do this but they would not go for it, they also tried to tell me BFG's don't have any warranty do y'all know if that's true???
I found a place this morning that will give me any tire I want!!!
Credit for the 265's and I pay the difference. Now I'm stoked

I cant decide if I should go 285's or 315's now??
I don't want to big of tire but my truck is leveled so.....What do you guys think?

Can anyone who got the BFG 285's comment on the road noise. Are these tires any more or less noisy than the Michelin's. Thanks
