Personally, I'd refuse to do business with anyone who refused to sell
me the product I wanted. There are plenty of tire shops around who
are willing to work with you and install different sizes, as long as
they fit.

FWIW, I've been looking in to tires since I noticed my Pirellis are
starting to crack apart. I've talked to several people on and off
this list whose opinions I value, and I've searched through the
archives. BFGs have a great reputation, and the KO is a nice tire for
sure, although they're quite expensive. I also keep hearing good
things about Dunlop brand tires -- great performance and traction, and
at a reasonable price. Their all-terrain is the Radial Rover RV (what
they call AT is more of an all season, go figure). Kyle Kozubal had a
set of the RVs, and he seemed to be quite impressed with them.
I've been thinking of ditching the crappy stockers and putting a set
of Rover R/Ts on Norah's truck (once we decide whether we're keeping
the '98 or getting a quad cab this summer). These tires are supposed
to be a more agressive all terrain. Picture here:

Anyone know anything about this particular style?
