I went to discount tire @1901 FM407 Flowermound and met a great guy,Leon Gonzalez who gave me credit for road hazzard.He knocked off 172.67.I had to only pay 62.91 for a new replacement.They liked my truck!Total for a new 555 is 222.00.These arent the DR's. Being close to x-mas i just got one,instead of the DR's i have been wanting.These guys were very nice and just wanted to give them a good ref..I have 10,250 miles on my truck and replaced 3 tires from road hazzard.Anyway it all worked out:D The worst part about the whole deal is being seen driven the L. with a spare.

Does anybody else have the same problems with Nitto's? I have them too but I have only put 200 miles or so on my truck since I got it.

FYI you cant get road hazzard on the Nitto DR. Also if you talk to them they will match the same price that Terrys prefered discount tire store give them to us.

I just ordered a set of the Nitto 555 for the front from Brandt and it was right below $500 out the door with tax. That price includes the $33 road hazard per tire. I bought it for the fronts, when I get the new drag radials it will be a little less (no road hazard, life is too short to worry about it).

I think he said the price is $200 for the 555 and $225 for the 555R's .

He does mount/balance for free for the Talon folks.

The offered me the road hazard on my DRs. The tire just have to still have a certain amount of tread on it.

me too. I declined, so it may have been the standard sales pitch they do on all tires

Maybe, but you have to wonder. I ordered my tires in advance and had to leave a deposit. When then came in they had my bill and everything already printed with the road-hazard free-replacement already listed. I told them that I didn't want it and they had to take it off and reprint it.
