Default Kelly Safari TSR 285/70/R17 Deal

I've been looking around for a long tread life, well-priced set of 33s for quite awhile. Currently have a stock 2010 JKU and have plans of putting a small lift on top of the 33s. I use my Jeep as a DD and drive around 35 miles/day.

I received a price quote for 5 Kelly Safari TSRs installed and out the door for $1,305, tax included.

I want some opinions if this seems to be a good deal.

Thanks in advance...

You'll always have the worst of both worlds trying to compromise tires for long commuting DD and offroad. Thought about running two sets of tires/rims?

You make a good point.

To be honest, I haven't gotten into off-roading enough to make the investment, nor do I have room to store the other set. I live in a condo in Dallas with no garage...

That's why I'm trying to find the best "hybrid" solution.

I was offered a little less than that on the 35s

Wow... Maybe I can switch around the way I'm asking the question. What would be a really good price on a set?
