Sale FYI: 33x9.5 AT T/A Radials $106ea @ Tire Rack

Seemed cheap to me...

woytovich · 08-01-08, 07:35 AM

Thanks for the info... this is exactly the kind of deal I've been waiting for. But...

I tried to get Sears to do a Price Match (to save on shipping) and in the preocess they told me that they cannot get these any more - that they are discontinued! I need to follow up with BFG to see if this is true... just a heads up.

woytovich · 08-01-08, 07:55 AM

Ok... all sorted out...
This is NOT discontinued.

BFG has upgraded the tire. The new BFG part number (that Sears didn't find) is 32374. The speed rating on the tire has been increased thus a new part number.
More on Sears price matching in a moment...

woytovich · 08-01-08, 08:04 AM

And the final verdict on Sears price matching is...

Sears will only price match if the store (my local store) has the tires IN STOCK. And since this size is odd my store will never have them in stock... what a rip...

I am going to stop in to the local store to see what they can do when I'm there in person...

Oh well. The Tire Rack deal is still sweet... THANKS.

65swb45 · 08-03-08, 06:01 PM

Ed, THANKS for the tip. FJ45dude was planning on getting a set of these for the 45 anyways; it sure didn't hurt getting a tip on a smokin deal. They are supposedly on the way to the shop already. I'll post up when they arrive.

SizzleChest · 08-04-08, 09:01 AM

either the sale is done or it's in store only, but i see $142 now.

Still @ $106 here (12:22 EST 8/4/08). Maybe because you are in BC they have different pricing?

65swb45 · 08-06-08, 11:46 PM

Not a dream! The tires came in Monday! Now to round up some black rims for Mike. Should have installed pics early next week.

69 FJ40 · 08-07-08, 01:38 PM

Thanks for the heads up. I was able to get America's Tire/ Discount Tire to get these in for me with a price match. They also waved the shipping charges to give me a deal. I should have them in a few days.

jcbutcher · 08-07-08, 01:59 PM

My thanks for the heads up. Although my wife is a little upset

. I have a question: What width rim will these 33-9.5-15 look the best on? Please give me your ideas. I like the look of the Pro Comp D spoke in Black. Thanks, John

Tatortot · 08-07-08, 03:41 PM

Took the plunge, order just 4. $513.64

dropped in my drive way by the oops man.

Staying with the stock rims for now. Maybe when this wear out I will move to 16", in the mean time I will have a year or 2 to get a steal on said rims...somewhere. Be careful where you park!!

6", not wider than 7" for sure.

samwise · 08-07-08, 05:07 PM

I have white spoked rims, not sure of brand, but I think they are 8 inch, will these tires not work???? Have pic thanks!!

jcbutcher · 08-07-08, 05:57 PM

Tell me if you can the best place to look for 6" rims. I find only 7" and up for anything that looks good. Any help is appreciated. John

Stockers, here or on craigslist. There's a set of four stock chrome wagons on CL SFBay for $100 right now. I got my four hubcap-type with nice 33x9.5 tires for $100 too.

I would not put them on anything wider than a 7" rim. As Fast Eddy said, 5.5 -6" stock LC wheels really are the best for this tire. HKforte got a set of the 6" chrome wheels and spray painted them grey; I think that looks

This is BFG 33x9.5x15 MT's on stock disc rims on my '55. http://forum.ih8mud.com/fj55-iron-pi...guatemala.html Look at post #87 & 92.

samwise · 08-11-08, 11:36 PM

Thanks for the help, I did some more looking into things and I am pretty sure these are 7in not 8. So I should be good.
