Not a bad price, not sure whether to pay £300 for second hand BFG MT's or go for new like these for a fraction more
Advise welcomed

Big Patrol has these on his Nissan so he could tell you
-
he's also got some hankooks in 33" for sale from the tj I believe.
-
Anyway of contacting him?
The reason I ask about the BFG's is cause I have a brand new (perfect condition) spare wheel, if I buy the set advertised I would still have a full set of BFG's if I go for something else them my spare would be different to the rest. Does this really matter? Also I'm very broke after the build however safety comes first so I want to get something sorted soon.

pm him on here and he will get back to you, he usually picks up his messages at work.

Go BFGs
Even 2nd hand they last well and give a really good ride on road even the MUDS.
If you get 12.50s and put em on an 8" rim you can safely air down to 10 psi without losing a bead. So great on rocks.
If you get mud in em and they leak. easy enough to use Hi lift to burst bead and remove mud then air up......
Up till I went 39.5...I used 33s and 35s in a BFG mud flavour for 10 years........ as i said great on road and great offroad............. never be good as a bogger in the mud but you don't to run them on road :hysterical:

So long as they are in good nick, no cuts or tears, go the BFG route :icon_winkle:
