The seller is trying to figure a price for me and MikesJK from washington is checking on some prices of new tires for me,


After washita and the mud pit I am positive I need some new tires before this summers mess of trail runs I plan on going on.

My new Hankook MT03's were $1079 installed for 5-315/70/R17 from a tire store in Rolla. They put them right on the stock rims and didn't even mention the wheel spacers. It helped that 2 of the guys in the shop own CJ's and are Jeepers. One guy kept getting on his creeper under the Jeep to see the "new stuff" on the JK, they loved it...

That sounds like a good price, my guy is closed on sundays and normally the prices I get from him are so competetive no one can even come close. I will let you know when I get a price.

That sounds like a pretty good price. I have gotten numbers on a few different sized and am thinking I will probably end up with 315 75 16 MTZ's for about the same money.

I was running 315 R17 MTZ's on my tow rig last time we went out ross.... and it ended up part of the way down ranch road to tow a jeep on trailer out.
