just wandering what are folks paying for MTR's from a rubi?
I have a line on some with ~85% tread left on them and the price will be $250 for all 5 ,1 is new from the spare
This is through a shop that does work on LOADs of rubi's and they are doing work for the local dealer so when they get a used rubi in newer cond.
sometimes they get it lifted and running 33's

Is about $50 the going rate?
is that to much?
I know the shop owner so I know he is not trying to screw me he has too much to loose as he is in the local club and I could easily spread the word if he did



OH yeah I know that I am the "MTR hater" but for $50 a tire for tires that I can easily get 30K out of and they will fit my jeep
also knowing that any other tire will cost me twice as much I say "whay not"?

I'd say $250 for 5 MT/R's with 85% tread(1 spare new) to be a very good deal,I'm sure you could find cheaper but the tires will probally have less tread.My 2 cents.

I'd say buy em up good deal

Yes very good deal considering they're $178 each plus shipping and on back order from tirerack.com. I just paid a little more than that for 4 with about 90-95% tread remaining.

Yeah it's got a hemi!

I am just waiting for the call from the guy to tell me to come and get um
The wife is more on board then I thought she would be

But when I told her to think of it like this
we have ~45K on the KJ and have yet to buy new tires the first set were junk and replaced by Good Year @~8K
With G/Y ATS's wich we got almost 40K out of and I will likely keep them on for that long just to save money
now with the NEED for new tires and these being $250 for all 5 that is cheeper than the cheep tires we would buy
and buy the next set the jeep will have 80k+ on it if we still have it
Yeah right I know we will still have it

Well I picked them up and I must say
WHAT A DEAL

I got 2 brand new never tuched the road
2 with maybe 3-5/32 of wear (about 6k on them)
and 1 with maybe 10K

I will go 2 new upfront
2 almost new out back
and last for the spare
Then I will go about 6-9K befor I rotate to wear the new ones to mach the older ones out back

Of corse this is when the tires that I have need replacing

I would say go for it. Tires are pricey.

Tires are in the garge awaiting the right time to install

where do most people buy their moabs and mtrs? ebay they go for a ton, rubi fourms i hardly see them for sale and not to many offroad shops arouynd here and ordering them from a shop will cost me more because they are special order.

I must not have been real clear on what I did to get mine for such a GREAT deal
First I know the owner so that helps

I was calling to get info on somthing completly unrelated to tires and over heard a some one ayin yes we can get 245/75 16 Iroks
I said how much for 32's and that led to talking about tires for the KJ
I asked if he had some that he took off of a TJ he said yes so I got them

I would say do the same
I can probably get another set with >50% tread left for the same price +shipping
or you can do the same at any local shop that may do work on rubis
