I finally found a Merchant's tire north of D.C. who ordered us Karrier brand Load Star tires and 15" rims. He only charged us $490. He felt sorry that we had such a hard time finding what we wanted and he discounted the labor since he did the work himself. Finally an honest guy around here. Most everyone else would special order rims or tires or tried to convince me I couldn't have the stems I wanted or the rims I wanted. The shop we had do the MD inspection on the TM told us we couldn't add a lift kit since there was not enough room in the wheel area and he knows what he's talking about since he used to sell rims and tires. They also turned us down when I ordered the lift kit and was willing to pay them to install. Glad we did it ourselves; it was a piece of cake.
