Default Great tire deal (BFG MT KM)

I just purchased my 08 Wrangler and or course, it came stock with the SR A wranglers. So I decided I'll shop around and try to get credit for them. Well, just so you all know, Discount Tire has the rubicon sized BFGs for 122 a piece, and I got 35 dollars credit per tire on my stockers, bringing the grand total (mounted, lifetime repairs, balance, and rotation) for 500 bucks on all 5 tires.


In other words, get rid of the stock tires quickly and you'll get a few bucks for them.

Just sharing some tricks. I've done this twice now with 2 different Jeeps.

Cool, so hopefully a lot of people know about this. It's pointless to drive on your stock tires when they could potentially be worth some $$$ at the tire store. Only 400 miles on my Jeep, and new meats already

Now I just need to find me some Rubi Rock rails

Pretty good deal, though I decided to run with the SR-As for awhile, but next year definitely getting new tires.

Bought the same set for $98 each from Tire Rack about 6 months ago and sold my stock tires for $200.

5K later they still look new.

I understand that tirerack has them for 94 bucks a piece, but the pricing that DiscountTire has includes mounting, repairs, and rotation for the life of the tire. That's where the real deal lies in my opinion.
