I just got a great price on GOODYEAR MTR'S 37x12.50 R 15

$1000.00 for 4, Not bad considering they list at 580.00 each.

And they only weigh 56 lbs each.

Versas, 38x12.50 15 Super Swamper sx's at 71 lbs each and a total for 4 of 750.00.

Looks like a new set of MTR's are coming as soon as the income tax return comes in. :D

:skull:

$250 each? Rock! You could make a living selling them on PBB for $275 - if you could keep getting them at that price. :cool2:

Sounds like a sweet deal...But I would rather know where you are getting the Swampers for $750? Is this an Internet deal or a "Hey buddy, can you hook me up" deal?

Well the price on the MTR's is because they are "adjusting" my current 35 mtr's. so I can only get 5 at that price.

The price on the 38's is at Pro Trucks in Murrysville Pa. I buy lots of stuff there and If I want them I have to pay cash. this is because he has to add extra costs for a Credit card. He told me they have them in stock and I can have them in no time.

for the diffrence in prices I can have another set of rims for the 38's and keep my 35's for Mall Crawling :D

That way the 38's would last way longer..... hmmm

Edit: One other thing that keeps poping up in my mind is... The weight of the tires on my poor Dana 30 front end...

do I stay with 35's or press my luck with 37's or Really press my luck with the heavy 38's???????

They make 37's in a 15" rim? Thought is was only for 17"?

Phil

Never mind - found it on their site. Available in 15" or 17"

I guess it is just the dummies at BFG who only make them in 17"

Phil

buy the MTRs and sell them for a huge profit. Then you can get whatever tires you want and still have cash left.

I run 36 SX's on my d30. I know they are at least 56 lbs each. Just carry a spare set of shafts or two.

I'd get the MT/R's, sell them to someone for a profit. Then buy the 38's, pocket the extra money, and build a 60.:flipoff2:

Buy the 37's on run 'em:D I've been told that they are a great tire.

I wish I could get 4 for a grand!

Steve, that sounds good, But there really isn't many other people here that would buy them. I would have to sell them to some one out your way.

I think I will have to think this over some more. good thing I have time on my side on this one.

Belly,

I know you like the MTRs , There is just something about the swampers though...Carry some extra axle shafts on the trail... stick with factory ones..its a good , easliy replaceable fuse...

Jim, Do you think I have enough clearance for 38's?

I think I do, I know they are going to rub. But I dont think they will rub to the point of hampering the travel.

I would rather not trim the front. But I dont mind trimin the back.

just stay out of the mud and you will like'em

I'd love to take those tires off your hands if you weren't so dang far away :D

well the standard 17" rim holds the bead better than a 15" rim on that size tire that's why the "dummies" only offer it in a 17" rim because most people don't run bead locks on their show trucks. lol :D :flipoff2: :D :D
