I am going to go look at some hi-ply 19.5" tires for my f450 this weekend. Any idea of what I should expect.. don't want to have that 'sticker shock' look on my face in front of the salesman.. :)

I put 6 aluminum 19.5 wheels with Goodyear G124s on them on the Ram and IIRC the tires were around $300 a pop. That was in the 245 flavor though. What is the F450, a 225?

I go through 4-6 245/70 19.5 tires per year on my GMC 5500. The Goodyear G124 (now something else, maybe 622?) tread was aweful, so I have swapped to Kuhmo's. The Goodyears were $350 each + mounting and balancing, the Kuhmos are about $275.00 with mounting and balancing.

Kuhmo's: tires-easy.com - Details: Kumho KRD02 245/70 R19.5 133/131M 14PR BSW

Pics of the Kuhmo's and the Goodyear.

Not the same class of truck but I have had great luck with Kuhmo Tires.

I put a set of Michelin P265/65R/18 on my Chevrolet truck last week and paid $935.16 out the door. I am sure in all likelihood you will be North of that.

can't remember the size off the top of my head.. but since I want to have a spare.. I probably will be getitng a pair for front/rear with rims.. that way I can be fairly sure about not being broke down ont he side of the road with a flat too long.
