So i've got a guy where i work that told me he can get me most any tire I want for his cost price. So a 200 dollar tire would be around 115 for him, what tires would yall get if you could have any tire of your choosing for alot cheaper than the listing price?
I am going to see if he can get me maybe two sets of 33x12.50 15 khumo KL71's and a set of tsl's for my set of wheels sitting in the garage.

Not that I expect your buddy to get me that price, but I'd like to know what 33x12.50x15 BFG MT KM2 tires would cost. Just curious. Oh and that's the tire I would get if it were me. Keep in mind, I use mind as a daily driver and the BFGs do wear well, and a long time.

I will ask him and get back to you. It may be a few days before i can get an answer for you. My boss bought some 200 dollar a piece tires for his bmw and this guy got them to him for 110 a piece mounted and balanced.

Diesel truck guys are getting 30 to 40k out of them towing so on a xj it would probably be safe to say you'll get 40k road miles out of them. They also have to be rotated every 5-7k.

He has the "hook up" on tires for HIM. I was just curious what the real cost of the BFGs are.

I still haven't gotten an answer from him. I'm going to ask him if i can order multiple sets and see if i can save money for people that are in the area and need tires on xjTalk. As soon as i find out I will let yall know.
Are you looking to get KM2's for your next set tony?

Well that would be very nice, but I wonder if that might get him fired.

I would go with the new general grabbers. Have not seen in action but they looked gnarly at four wheel parts wholesale.

I agree really cool looking tires. Have seen a set preform offroad. They did pretty good in the mud.
