I'm no good with 4x4 gear lol, and this is the only 4x4 area i'm signed up to so here we go

My best mate is currently running some bf at's in 32X11.5R15 113R
He needs to grab a new rear as one of the knobs has torn off up at the powerlines.

Anyways, convinced him to get two, smash the better one onto another spare rim so he has 2 spares, replace both rears (is his daily too), but at $400a pop quoted from my usual tyre guy? I can find them on the net for around the $300 mark, getting jipped?

Hes' a bit of a jew pingpingpingping(my mate), so was thinking what are some other options that do just as good in that size?

the price online obviously doesnt include fitting and balance usually $10-30 per tyre add in postage being big and bulky i'm guessing $50-70 per tyre and your probably getting pretty close if not more than that $400ea mark.
4wd tyres are expensive and BFG's are up there if not the most expensive you can buy locally.

Being bent over badly!

15" tyres are extremely cheap compared to the 16" counterpart.

BFG AT in that size should be under $300 each fitted and balanced.

BFG are typically cheaper than the following brands; Cooper, MT, ProComp, Goodyear.

As an example my STTs in 305/70/16 (33x12.5x16 in old school) were $359 a pop. A 33x12.5x15 would come up just over $300.

Is this what he is after?
If your mate can wait 2 weeks, budget for US $350-400 freight + custom charges 10%?

hmm fuck,
thank god i didnt say anything to my mate yesterday.

Usual tyre guy is good for me and another mate, i by 4 215/45 - 235/40 17's every 3 or so months and $70 each stretched fitted and ballanced.

Could be that my mate was a fuckstick and just said i want those herp derp.


Cheers guys, will have to drill the muppet on the price!

Yeh apologies looks like i done a Dufus post, i was under the impression BFG and 4wd tyres were more expensive as i have always bought 2nd hand or had hook ups.
