Any recommendations for a retailer to buy from for a new wheel and tire setup? I'm located in MA/CT (but willing to do online) and looking to do Method 305 double black (17") and either BFGoodrich All Terrain TA KO2 315/70R17 (Load C) or Toyo Tires Open Country A/T III LT315/70R17 (Load C). Would like to have setup ready to go with TPMS sensors, balanced, and black lugs. Price obviously a consideration, but more focused on getting the right package and having no issues (damage to wheels when mounting/delivery, etc) plus customer service if there's a problem. For reference, I have a '22 Rubicon (no lift) that should be ready for pickup by end of month / early March so hoping to swap out stock wheels/tires shortly upon delivery.

Thanks in advance!

I've been looking hard at Extreme Terrain (www.extremeterrain.com); they have a great selection of tires and wheels, and will mount and balance prior to shipping, including TPMS.

I'm sure there are others, but so far like what I'm seeing from them. Their pricing is very reasonable compared to Tirerack.com

Discount tire has treated me very well. I’ve had them redo tire balance when weights came off, clean and reseat a tire when rocks got wedged in the bead, and repair punctures all without additional charge.

They may not be the best price you can find but the large number of stores and the service after the initial purchase makes it worth doing business with them in my opinion.

@Discount Tire really took care of me when I bought the wheels. They are great to forum members. Not sure if they sell rims, but you can usually find a good deal on rims elsewhere if needed.

If you have a Les Schwab in your area, they have been the greatest place to work with for me, always stellar customer service.

Working on being a burden to my children.
I too wanted to have new tires/wheels ready to go when my new JLURD arrives. I have Toyo 'Open Country' MT's on my Duramax and have been very happy with them so I decided to stay with them for my JL. I decided to go with the 315/70R17 113Q and checked pricing at Discount which were at $379.00. I did some online searching and found Walmart offered them @ $319.00 with free shipping, so being as Discount price matches, I clicked on the 'Find it cheaper elsewhere?' link, copied the Walmart link, sent it to them and they stated they would match it...Saved $300!
As for wheels, I like the Fuel D552's, did a search for best pricing and ended up at 'ProParts USA' which had the best price, no tax and free shipping. Lastly, I found the correct TPMS sensors at 'Extreme Terrain for $34.86.

Another vote for Matt at @Discount Tire.

Bought wheels/tires/tmps and lugs for my JK from him and service was excellent. Had there not been a nationwide back order on Fuel Covert's, I'd have ordered my package for my JL from them last week as well.

For me, I'm finding certain retailers that have stock of the wheels, but not tires, and DTD had the tires but not wheels. Stinks to lose the free mount/balance and discounts and have to piecemeal and figure out how to shlep to my local tire shop for them to overcharge me to mount and balance. May end up my only option.

IMHO keep the stock wheels that are engineered for your rig and lighter than most aftermarket. Many folks say KO2 315's fit on stock wheels, no personal experience. Discount for sure, love the rotation, balance policy. Been using them 25+ years.
