Anyone having luck buying a tire and wheel package in full these days? Details within...

[JeepRage]

I'm looking specifically for C rated 315 BFG ATs, TPMS for 22 Gladiators, and +25mm offset rims (either AEV Saltas, or Method 701/703/705 style in black).

EVERYWHERE I've looked, has at most, 2 of the components, but not all 3. I've been trying to "impulse buy" a set for a month or so now, and afraid if I take much longer, I'll talk myself out of them. hah.

I’ve had minimal luck with impulse buys over the past year or so.

Most places that I’ve looked have one or two of those items, but not all threes. I.e. No TPMS or garbage tire selection. That works for me (I want AEV Pintlers), as I don’t REALLY want to spend the money at the moment. ?

My two cents…if you REALLY want to do this…order the items separately, piece the setup together, and get it put together locally.

Probably a pretty tough ask with AEV wheels, most places don't carry them. And a lot of places still don't seem to have the appropriate TPMS sensors.

I got my Saltas direct from AEV in a couple days, their shipping was pretty impressive. Mopar TPMS sensors off ebay, also just a couple days. Then I had Discount Tire mount and balance tires they had in stock locally. I just dropped off the wheels and picked them up later, same day.

That is probably the approach I'll end up doing. I like that AEV uses OEM lugs, I only want to use OEM TPMS sensors as well.

OEM lugs? Don't most wheels accept OEM lugs?

I know there are different lug nut seats but in my 10 or so sets of wheels I've bought for various vehicles I've never bought a set that varied from the OEM for the given vehicle.

Some have required a thin wall socket, however.

I thought I'd read Method require different lug nuts.

Sounds like you have some fun mods in store. We have tires ad wheel available as well but not the 2022TPMS sensors at this time. Let us know if we can help.

Thanks for responding. Are there any package incentives at this time? Any ETA on sensors? Looking to avoid paying for second balancing locally with sensor swap.

FYI I bought Mopar sensors from this seller on ebay. Discount Tire originally put the wrong sensors in my wheels, and they use generic ones at that. Which is fine, but much more expensive. ($60 ea!) Just do yourself a favor and source them yourself if you need a second set.

Additionally, the company that manufactures the generic universal ones Discount Tire uses did not have a product that worked for the new Gladiator TPMS system, last I checked.

::edit::
I really shouldn't call them generic, they use Schrader sensors. Good stuff, just costs a good bit for universal sensors when the OEM can be had cheap. And when, you know, the universal ones don't actually work.
