Hey guys I just picked up four 31/10.5 Bfg A/T tires with about 80% tread for $200 on rims. What do you think of these tires? Anything problems with these tires?
I use the truck for a D/D and a light off roader
Thanks for any info

Ya a guy down the road had them chained to a telephone pole for about a week for $300 I kind of kept my eye on them to see if anyone showed any interest and I saw none so I walked over and started lookin at them and the guy comes running out and says give me $200 and there yours I just want them off my lawn
SOLD and he loaded them into my truck

I think they are the best all-around street/off road tire. Great and pretty quiet on pavement, decent in mud and awesome in snow. Good tread life also. obviously there are better off-road tires but these are probably the better tires on the street

I will run mine til' they are in need of replacing in which I have heard the life of BFG A/T's if taken care of is pretty long. I love mine. Had 31's now have them in a 32. They do really good in the sand (avatar).

Rims do fit my jeep but they seem to have huge back spacing and are about 10" wide. Think they came off a wrangler. I think I'm just gonna transfer the tires to my ranger rims that are on the Cherokee now
Thanks guys for all the info.

Had mine on since last October and have a couple cross country trips on them. I have been very happy in the sand and mud a a little bit of snow. Have yet to try them on the rocks.

Measure the backspacing as you want between 3-4" of backspacing for an XJ.

I flattened one of the tires and put a straight edge accross the rim edge
set my tape at the inside mounting surface and to the front of the rim it reads just under 6 inches. is that the proper way to measure back spaceing?

Moses, do it on the backside of the wheel. Measure from the back mounting surface to the backside of the wheel edge.

Sorry it's a bling bling wheel but it was the first pix i found on google.
