Anyone ever run these before? They are the Discount Tire brand...they have a deal going right now, but wasn't sure how they were.

Also, I'd like to go with a 15x8. It sounds like the correct B.S. would be like 3.75", does that push them out too far?

find out where they are made. if china, stay away from them. i believe i remember hearing about some quality issues with them.

check out used tires. i just picked up a nice set of 32/11.5/15 BFG all terrain TAs with 90% tread for 213 mounted and balanced on my wheels.

Wow...that's a great deal! I just picked up some new 31" BFG's for $300. I wanted 32" tires, but couldn't find any used.

Maybe I'll just go with black steel wheels...

yeah it was kindof a steal. i talked with the guy on the phone and he said 150-200 depending on which ones i went with. i stopped by the next day, the guy wasnt there so i dealt with someone else. checked out the tires and found that they were not matched, one had considerably more tread wear on it and two had plugs, so i offered 150 for them plus mounting and balancing. so the guy agreed and starts putting them on and when the guy i talked with showed up, he said that he was supposed to get 200 for the tires i chose but he didnt try to jack the price cause i was having them mount and balance them.



are you in the new england area? cause the place i got them from is in whitman MA. there is also a junkyard nearby that has some 31*10.5*15 bfg all terrain TAs that could probably be bought for pretty short money. might be able to help you out in getting them too.
