Best price on 35x12.5x15 BFG Mud Terrain's???????

I've been thinking about getting these tires and the best I've found so far is $684.28 ($156.99/tire plus $56.32 shipping)from http://www.4wheelparts.com Every other place I've looked at the tires cost about the same per tire but charged more for shipping. I've looked around locally yet because I wanted to see what the best price on the net was first. Thanks.

Thumbs up to much money

i guess it's a good price for the net--but i pay 108.00 a piece for that same tire here in alaska....go to the bfgoodrich wharehouse wholesaler--in your area and make a namw up for your shop,,,,the guys there should have no problem giving you the tires at whole sale prices......

i have never paid retail prices for a tire in my life,,,,any wholesaler--is glad to sell one more pair of tires....believe me it's worth your time to try this....

hi i am from the kickinasphalt motor shop and we need a pair of 35 bfg's for our
parts truck,,,,joe blow from napa sent me to see you guys first...if this dosen't feel good to you then go to a cosco or sams club--they will let you order a set for 50 bucks less a tire then your paying.....saving 200 plus dollars is worth a lil work-no...

all the best

Have you contacted your local Sam's Club? I believe they are cheaper than that. No delivery charges but they do have to order them and send them to the store of your choice.

In the US, the BFGs are the same price everywhere. BFG will not let the retailers discount these tires below their "set" price. Just go to Discount Tire or Belle Tire or a similar store. Or go buy them in Canada.

Also, just another thought for you- If you go to discount tire, or america's tire co, they have very decent prices, and also offer insurance. I paid a total of 770$ for 4 BFG M/T 33" tires. I got lifetime mount an balance, had them siped, for 20$ a tire, then had 22$ a tire insurance put on them. The insurance is worth it. Basically it says that if within 3 years you stump the tire, blow out the sidewall, or basically do anything else to the tire that makes it beyond repair they will replace it for 22$, which gets you a brand new tire, mounted balanced, siped, etc.

I cannot tell you how helpful this is. I blew out the side of mine, called americas tire co, they sadi bring it in. No questions asked, I got me a brand new BFG for 22$, identical to my oher three.....IMO you cant beat it. Also you had said that was just shipping an tire, no mounting or anything.....so you might look into this....

No Discount Tire's in my area. Just called up Sears and they have them for $167.99 a piece. Mount and balance is $13.50 per tire. He also said the roadside warranty package would be $850 for the set which includes mounting. This is about $130 more then if I just got all four plus mounting. Do you think this is worth it? Its sounds like good coverage but $130 is a good chunk of change plus I'm not a real serious off-roader.
