well I was looking for wheels a little while ago, and a guy answered me from a few days ago.

has a set of 20 rockstars and had some kumhos on there but price was steep so I told him to high and he said he would throw some goodyears on he has that have about 30% thread left.275 65 20.

he wants 800 for the rims and tires together..should I even consider this? never really been a HUGE fan of rockstars since its seems like everyone has them and I dont usually like to blend in with others..

thoughts?

if you don't like 'em, don't buy.

I wouldn't buy those for that price.

You know for awhile there it seemed like everyone had them but anymore I never see them
To be honest other the. My buddies truck, I really haven't seen anything else with then in probably a year
I think they have just ended up like rough country and are stuck in the "those a junk" rut

I would only get them if it was really what you were wanting, good or bad deal aside.

Well I dont dislike the wheels themselves, I have just been eyeing a set that iv never seen anyone with, these have the machined look tho, never see anyone with those..hm..I might offer him like 500 for tires and wheels and if he bites I might just snag it

what do those tires translate to size wise?

im confident with my level they will fit, might even look small..i have 31's now.

I would prob need new tires shortly considering everyone says goodyears suck and I want a/t tires..

500 is prob a lowball offer for 20's and tires..right? what do yall think would be "fair", considering I will have to buy new tires soon most likely

oh so they are the machined rockstars? yeah I haven't seen those in person yet. I didn't know they existed till a few months ago. If you like them, go for it.

The 275/65/20 would be a 34"

I'd buy rockstars if I could find a good priced set. If you don't really like them, keep looking though
