That's the thing. Looking to go a little bigger. 285/75/17
Hopefully I can find used but good condition tires and wheels for around 600-700. That might be wishful thinking tho.
The Pathfinders are 145/ea in that size. I'm sure there's other tires around the same price, check Discounttiredirect.com and Tirerack.com. Add $100 for mount and balance and all that and you're still inside your budget. I don't think you have to buy used unless you really want to.
Treadwrights always seem to start a fight every time they're mentioned. I'll just say do your research on that one. Lots of guys have had bad luck with Treadwrights.

And you are starting that fight with your last sentence. Even more people have had good luck with them. Keep in mind a forum is a place where people go when they have problems so it goes without saying you will see that on here.
Alright guys, need a lil help. Whats your opinion on these. Micky Thompson 33 / 13.5 / 15 for $600. Tires and wheels pictured. Owner says around 50% tread left.
Also can you tell me what model these tires look like?

tell them you'd like less jeep more tires in the pictures
Those look like Mickey Thompson Baja claw tires tires.
I'm going to go on a whim here and say those will not last long on the road lol. Reading online it seems like they get 40k max road miles and are EXTREMELY loud.
My concern is the 15" wheel, I'm not 100% sure they will fit, definitely something I'd look into before I buy.
They are 300 each brand new, if they have 50% tread that brings them down to 150 each, multiplied by 4 is 600, so if it where a store front you where buying it from they would be priced right, but I wouldn't pay more than 400.
Personally, I think for 600 you can find a better deal on a more respectable tire that will be more comfortable and last longer.
Thanks for your help. If they are the baja claws than ya I think Ill probably pass. He was gonna throw in the wheels as well tho so I was thinking it was a good deal. Ill keep on searching than, hopefully Ill get lucky.
