Just an FYI for anybody that's interested but I have found that buying tires from the dealership (they can pretty much get you anything you want) is actually a little cheaper than somewhere like Discount Tire. I found this to be true on a set of duractracs for my old suburban back about 7 or 8 years ago and again just the other week with the '21 yukon...This is my findings on a set of 275/60r20 Nitto Ridge Grappler 116T XL mounted and balanced.
Discount Tire $1231 before tax
Local Chevy/GMC dealer $1194 before tax
It's obviously not a huge difference in price but I keep reading about issues with tpms calibration from places like Discount Tire and people ending up at the dealership anyways so might as well just go there in the first place. I also prefer the factory trained techs over the tire store flunkies any day even doing something as simple as mounting tires
