Good cheap 17" tires

Postby BBR12 » Tue Feb 21, 2006 8:16 am

I'm about to be in the market for some new 17" all terrains probably. I don't need a real aggressive tire. I put on alot of highway miles so I need a good wearing tire that won't break the bank. I like the bridgestones but the prices I've heard are in the $1000-1200 range and I don't like that none. Any suggestions or places to get em from Jackson to McComb.

If you are looking for a deal on BFG All Terrains ya'll check these out. They are brand new, not factory seconds. This is a dealer in arkansas. I bought these same tires off of here and love them. Cou can get a set of 4 for 747.08. The shipping to Oxford was only ~66.00 so It couldn't be that much more to Jackson. Plus there is no sales tax for buying them here

If you click on "view sellers other items" under "seller Information" you can see the other sizes he has available.. Hope this helps

I have driven the Kelly Saffari MSR's on my last two vehicles and loved them. I bought a F-150 with 18" rims and Kelly isn't making the MSR in an 18", but I am waiting for them... The last time I cecked, they were still around $125 a piece for the 17".

Might have better luck under 'General Classified'. :P

I bought a set of bridgestone dueler a/t revo three yrs ago and put a bunch of miles on them and they still look good and get me through just about anything I would expect from a all terrain. I think they were 650 maybe 750? Good tire for a good price...

you might want to try the TOYO tires they are great I have a set on mine and they are pretty good if you need to go through the woods you might want to take your hunting truck but for highway and pulling the boat out of the water they do great. A buddy of mine got 70,000 out of his set and he is rough on a truck

Call 'The Mud Hole' in Kenner, LA. Ask for Craig.

I hunt w/ the owner and he will give you the best price hands down on ANY tire. And would probably even bring them to you or at least meet you half way... :wink: He has a cabin here in MS and comes to it often.

Postby 4DUKHTN » Tue Feb 21, 2006 2:45 pm

I have 17's on my F-150 and I run hoosier tires...I paid $90 per tire mounted and balanced here locally in Guntown, MS. I have been running them for 2 years and love them...In the winter, I run Goodyear Wrangler MTR 17's and they will go through whatever to get to the ducks...
