Default Tires

I'm looking to buy an aggressive ire for my 2009 jeep wrangler unlimited.
Want to spend around 200 per tire.
I won't be off roaring like crazy but love the look of an aggressive tire.

Any suggestions?
I have found 5 bf goodrich mid terrain for 700$. With 11000km on them.

Thanks

what size tire/rim? are you stock? I have toyo's on mine in 37" size, and got them for $300 a tire....I'm sure if they're smaller they would be much lower in the price range....

The shitty part is Canadian Prices are freakin ridiculuous compared to the US. A 33" Toyo M/T I got quoted $400.00 Cdn plus taxes... Seems tires in Canada are at least +$100/tire more than in USA for the exact same tire. Thus why I am driving across the border and getting them.

I was planning on using the stock 17 inch rims. No cash to upgrade rims

Yup

That's why I buy at tirerack.com. The seller gives you the price including shipping in Canada, and all custom fees and taxes.

One more thing: The US dollar = CAN dollar
So, I don't understand why the tires are at the same price. It's not normal. With a strong Canadian dollar value, tires should be cheaper.
