BFG A/T prices

Just wondering if anyone has found online prices for some BFG A/T's fairly cheap. I'm looking for LT275/70R18's. So far the cheapest i've found was 188.00 each at tirerack.com

good luck....they aren't cheap, but they are worth it. They were close to $400 a tire for my truck for the size I wanted. I have 20" rims which I really didn't want.

So I bought Nitto's.

My old F150 had BFG's and I prob got 70k miles out of them.

I had them on my 04 F150 in the 305/65/18 size. They weren't cheap but I loved them. On hard snow packed, icey roads they were great. Had them off road a couple times up in the Mtns and they did great there as well. Never had any trouble with wear at all. No all terrian does good in deep mud so no reason to comment on that.

Only time I had them on wet grass would be once up in a back mtn camp site. On the last day it started raining like an SOB but never had a problem there either.

I had BFG A/Ts on my Explorer and they were great in the dirt and snow but when it icey they sucked a lot. IMO there are better tires out there for the money.

Tire Products - Discount Tire Direct

They are a bit more here(at first), but the shipping is included compare to tire rack.

Might check Sams club just to see. I'm not keen on mail ordering tires myself.

That's a good price. But I would see if Discount Tire will price match Tire Rack. I live in South Bend, In. So I don't have to pay for shipping to buy tires from Tire Rack. But I also have a Discount Tire store 2 miles from my house. When I bought a set of BFG Premier Touring tires for my wife's car, I went to Discount to see if they would price match Tire Rack. They did, but didn't have them in stock. So I had to go back a couple of days later. Ironically, they ordered the tires from Tire Rack. If Discount Tire will price match Tire Rack, you'll save the shipping costs. Just my $.02.

well i went to a couple of different tire shops today and none of them had the BFG A/T's in the size i wanted so no luck on that. Plus they all called their warehouses and said they were on national back order. I called a shop my coworker recommended and their warehouse had 80 each of 275/70R18 which is what i wanted. They quoted me at $1038.69 out the door so i finally pulled the trigger and ordered them. I put 50% down and they will be in Wednesday evening. Unfortunately i work night s so i won't be able to get them installed until Thursday. I will post pics that Thursday. i feel like an 8 year old at Christmas time. I cant' wait!

I got a set from Sam's years ago and loved them. Everyone has a different opinion, but they were a great tire for me. Mud, snow, ice, offroading, no problems.

Congrates man. I hope you like them. I plan on buying the 305/65r18s as soon as my Nitto's wear out.

If you can find them at Sams Club, they should be quite a bit cheaper, and Discount Tire will match that price!
