Well after 4 years and 50k+ miles the 32x11.5x15 BFG KM MT's are due for replacement.

Here is an image, should I keep these or leave them at Discount Tire?

I'd keep them :rolleye0012: they will be sold to a used tire guy for 5 bucks and then sold again. so keep and resell them for 50ish for the set. Someone will happily pay

I thought they may be useful for off road....

Of course the spare is almost new, maybe 5k miles on it. That one will be worth more than the other 4. :D

Keep 'em you can get $100.00 out of them as a set of rollers for someone who's doing a build,they would be fine for snow use (i know not in TX) but ya never know. I would say keep em . Worst comes to worse mabey someone on here needs tires and can't afford them those would get them around for a while ... pay it forward

Around 50k on the average and they are great on snow and ice.I believe they still come drilled for spikes if you can use them there.

I would say keep them. I sold a pair just like that same size even, for $125 not that long ago.

Discount will charge you a disposal fee on them if you leave em there. Before you do that let me have them :D

Definately keep them, you can sell them yourself to pay for you install, or trade for a small goodie, or they will definately help someone out someday, alot of people look for old tires to throw on a rim as a spare. Always nice when you can help a fellow Jeeper out anyway you can
