Hi Boys/Girls
I have started looking around at tyre prices....a little bit shocked I must admit. I am running 295x75 R16 BFG AT's they want to charge me around the $380 mark for a new one..x4....ouch. However I want to go up to a 315 x 75 which I still can on my mag but they are $400 each. Does this sound about right? I also got quoted on a tyred called maxes I think it was for something like $270 each, but I have never heard of them and I don't know if I should just stick to a brand name that everyone know??
Thanks

It is a shocker isnt it.
Go to Offroad
shop and get an indication on prices- unfortunately they dont seem to have prices on the BF ATs you are chasing, but there are similar models. I rocked up to a tyre
shop in my town and quoted these prices to the local tyre mob (obviously the site price excludes fitting/balancing and you need to add the postage). The tyre mob I got
mine thru came down to almost their cost price to win the business. They didnt beat the price on offroadshop, but I got fitting, balancing and a local warranty agent.
With the dirt cheap figures you can get off the net, take them into a large chain that guarantees to beat any other competitiors price and you're on a winner.
