A couple months back Tire rack had them for about the same $108 price, but I think it was a sale price because I seem to remember them going back up.

How do you get 400 for 5 tires? You mean 4 tires? 424..?

That's the new math - just kidding. What I meant (and wasn't real clear about now that I read it) was I'm offering my set of 5 Rubi BFG's for $400. I'd like to get more but the Mavis pricing and all the take-offs being dumped here make that impossible. Selling perfectly good tires at a loss just to go larger so my lift doesn't look so strange and gain less than an inch of ground clearance at $225 per tire is hard to choke down!

Default Rubicon Tires

I have just decided to sell a set of these yesterday. I live in the KC area, but can ship if I have to.

5 x LT255/75R17 32" BF Good Wrench BSW Mud Off-Road Tires mounted on 17" x 7.5" Machined Cast Aluminum Wheels Less then 30 Miles of only freeway driving..... $1000 but, will entertain all other offers. search this auction number on ebay 180200100799 to understand which tires these are.

These are already mounted, balanced and ready to roll.

I am sure there may be some unreal deals around, but usually these go for no less than $250 a tire.

Contact me @ Lite2rw@comcast.net if interested.

The only difference is the shape of the center lugs. They have a little hook on the ends.

Post them on the "for sale" board. You might get lucky and find a guy local to you that wants to upgrade a Sahara or X. Unfortunately a lot of people are dumping them on this board for $100 each for wheel and tire. You might have better luck getting your price on Ebay if you can't find a buyer here.

Rubi's are 17". Sorry, no.
