st george tyres.. cheap bfg

Post by cossie1 »

has anyone bought BFG from there? Are they the real deal? Im saving at least $300 for a set, but a little wary on fakes/parrallel imports.

What prices are you paying per tyre, and what size?

I have noticed a massive differance between retailers for the same tyres.

IE: Bighorns 35x12.5x15 $425 each or $360 each that's a $325 differance of a set of 5 :shock: , so it does happen.

$198 for BFG M/T in 30x9.5R15

cheapest i found from other retailers is $272, so its not like a couple of dollars difference.

I may go down there today to check them out for myself.

It doesn't surprise me. I can buy Bridgestones from an importer in Sydney cheaper then a Bridgestone dealer down here reckons he get's them for. Some of these mobs are making only $5-$10 a tyre!

wow that is cheap :shock:
I priced them about 2 months ago from about 4 places and the cheapest I could get for a 30 x 9.5 was $265 , I bought maxxis bighorn instead for $195 and Im happy so far.

If they are the real deal grab them
85 high roof 1.3, 6.5 tc, air lockers,ruf and 34 swampers. yep its an ugly pos.

speaking of those guys. Does anyone know what the "chunky mud tyre" they sell is? the only thing you can read in the photos is radial M/T
