How many miles on tires? My x came with Goodyear which were just about shot. Replaced with a set of Rubi Bfg Mtr's with only 50 miles on 4 and the new spare. Craigslist. Pd $700.00 for just the 5 tires.

Read this right after reading your post.

5 Rubi Wheel and tires.



I have four rubicon tires and wheels for sale with 8,000 miles on them and the matching spare that is brand new. The rims and tires are in great shape. I am asking $650.

Note original message had wheel spacer for sale also, but they are now sold. Now Just the wheels and tires are for sale.

Thanks

I paid $1200 for 5 wheels/tires/tpms but they had under 100 miles on them.
