Reconsider what, I do not understand. Reconsider not mounting them and getting a different tire or reconsider going somewhere else? Thanks.
I was able to get them on, I took it to sears, they charged me $47.68 to just basically air them up and balance them. I told them/showed them that they were still not seated properly. the idiots tried way overinflating them and they would not seat. I told them to dismount and remount them like i said and use plenty of soap but they would not listen. I got a refund, took it to a tire place that specializes in aftermarket wheel/tire setups. They had the tires on in 5 minutes and good to go and best of all did not charge me anything after me telling the headaches I had today lol. I plan to go back next week and buy 2 tires for the daily driver since they were so nice. When I spoke to Mickey Thompson they told me there was no reason why those tires and wheels would not work, he said they were the correct width.
