Default rough value of my tires?

I can't find these online. They came with my cherokee I bought yesterday and I'm installing a 4.5 and need bigger tires so I'm trying to trade or sell locally and want to know what the tires alone might generally be worth. The seller said he paid about $1000, but I'm sure it was to try and keep me close to his asking price. (poker face)

Tires alone could prolly pull in about 700-800. With rims 900-1000 around here.

good to know. I planned on just trade/selling the tires but I'm not in love with the rubicon rims.

yeah these tires are nice but will look dinky on a 4.5

I think they would look fine if your fenders arent trimmed and running stock flares.

you got yourself some BFgoodrich KM2's. awesome tire. i just looked up those in your size and they are 950 for a set of 4. you could probably get about 900 for them since they are brand new.

I wasnt sure if I would or not because they say I could use the stock mounting holes

I live in a desert town. EVERY cherokee(and every lifted truck for that matter) has a "california lift" (inch or two higher in the front) with no clearance in the rear. They all just have a very desert, baja, pre-runner, racing style to them and I'm over that. I want rough militant, mountainy woodsy style...yeah i think thats a good description ha ha. none of these painted matching bumpers and stock painted fender flares.

That's what I kept finding too, but mine say Baja Champion T/A so I wasn't sure if there was any difference.

i can go look at mine since i have the KM2's currently and see what they say. i know they have the marking T/A on the side lugs. but idk about the baja. either way those are KM2's and a lot of people love these tires because the pretty much act like an agressive all terrain

That's exactly opposite of what I do. I lift my rear higher since you can't cut near as much fender without a bunch of fab.

yeah cutting those pinch welds and filling the gap is a pain.
