How much are my tires worth
« on: October 06, 2008, 09:32:37 PM »
I have a few people tell me when i get new tires to let them know because they want mine but i have no clue what to ask.  The are 35x12.50r15 BFG at's with about +/- 30% tread left on them.  I think they have to plugs in them but hold air just fine.  I just don't want to rip anyone off but i also don't want to give them away in the process.  BTW MTR's will be bought withing the next 2 months  ;D

I am glad you dont listen to the web wheelers. Should be pretty sick looking. You better put some picks up immediately.

Why do you need 37's?  Like myself, I don't think you wheel hard enough to "need" 37's.  35's keep the challenge alive in you.  :)

The new challenge will be not destroying the Dana 30.

The main reason for 37's is because that is the tire i have always wanted to run.  The original plan was to build a 44 front and be done with it.  I am also going to be graduating within 2 years and the jeep will not be driven everyday (44 front will be built then).  Also when i am driving down the interstate my rpm's are close to 3000, which is a little high for me so i think the 37's will be about perfect.  Lastly, I just want them ;D and with how low my jeep sits, it will give me that extra inch of clearance i need and stop the belly and 8.8 from dragging everywhere.

Maybe you should post some more pictures of the awesome jeeps with 37's, and below 3" of lift...some people just dont get it.   ;D
