OK, I just picked up (4) 255/75/17 BFG MT TA KM's for $59 each at Tirerack.com. They are load rating C and say "Different Tread" in the description. I know there is something not right, but that price was hard to pass up. Are these tires going to have a different tread pattern than a regular MT TA KM? Are they screwed up tires? Are they only going to last 10K miles? Or did I just do a really smart thing and get a great deal?

 

wait for reply as everyone runs to tirerack.....

 

No they are just fine. These are the stock rubicon tires. They are called "different tread" because they in fact have a different tread lug pattern that is unique to the jeep wrangler rubicon. They were specifically made for Jeep and these are probably overstock. I bought one for 93 from them awhile back to replace a punctured tire on my rubi - I heavily inspected it and its an exact match, so not to worry.

 

That is a .great price! Those are the Rubi tires.

 

Holy crap, that's cheap!

I bought mine at Discount Tire B&M. Great tires.
Worlds better than the POS Goodyears SR-As that came stock.

 

Well, I guess I am happy then. I was about to buy larger 285/70/17's, but figured I would just stay with the stock tires for my Rubicon until I could afford to do the lift and new tires and wheels. Sure can't beat the $59 price.

 

GOOD PRICE

 

Extremely cheap and good price

 

I thought tirerack offered free shipping. when I add to cart, the shipping is like 92 bucks.
