Could someone tell me good price for a BF goodrich 265/65/17 ?
One jax tyre quoted around $295 in Sydney region. Is it reasonable?

As of last week, prices for BFG AT in 65 series weren't available.

PradoGXLv6 I was quoted $305 for a BFG AT in 70 profile just last week. I thought this was actually quite reasonable.

BFG AT 265-65-17 are supposedly here the week before Xmas and the guy from my local Bob Jane store rang the supplier while I was standing there.

The product is still not listed and no price was available, but by the looks of it there are a few PP'ers with a rubber fetish for Xmas

Matt,

I thought you had your heart set on the Wrangler MTR's? Go on you know you want them or the MT MTZ's. :twisted:

Re: Current tyre prices, as of 18/11/08

Got an offer for $318 for BF Goodrich 70's last week from Bob Jane in Brooklyn Park, Adelaide (the fella said he would look after me on price since he couldn't get MTs). Same as Coops and MT these will be going up as of 1st Dec apparently. I had an offer for $332 on MT ATZ4s today from the Keswick City Discount Tyres, Adelaide but then the guy found out he had the wrong book and then the price went up by $50 so the best I can get on these is $365 at the Kidman Park Brigestone, Adelaide. Coopers ST at Salsibury Torque Tyres, Adelaide where $380 end of last week.

I'm not 100% sure but I thought there was some sort of rebate on Goodyear tyres at the moment?

Since I havn't actually purchased then this post doesn't fit your category but you could say I've been window shopping.

Was going to get some new shoes last week, but ended up ordering a deluxe bar. MT ATZ 4 rib cheapest i could find was $340 each. If the price is going up in Dec i might have to get them as well. Who said kids need gifts for xmas

Re: Current tyre prices, as of 18/11/08

Locally in the Hunter Valley, I got these prices this morning :

Mickey Thompson MTZ : $400 Fitted & Balanced.

Goodyear Wrangler MTR : $350 Fitted & Balanced.

Cooper ST : $382 Fitted & Balanced.

Cooper ST-C : $412 Fitted & Balanced.

Cooper STT : $413 Fitted & Balanced.

It seems the dollar has impacted tyre costs, but not to the extent that I expected.

Cheers :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

So does that mean you've made your pick? What flavour are you going for?

When I spoke to Cotton Tyres here in Adelaide, (local distributor for MT) the fella indicated that exchange rate was only one factor. Other factors where the increase in price of rubber but I believe this is tied to Oil so this should go down. The other issue was that the price had been stagnant for about 18 months.

In Alice the quotes I received were MTR $450 and MTZ $390 but that wa a few months back. Seems like you got a good price on the MTR's Matt.

Re: Current tyre prices, as of 18/11/08

got a set of Cooper ATR 235/70/r17 re+ for $275 each, was quote $350 for d694 and AT3. Would have thought you could find 265 size tyres for slightly cheaper, noting that they are the norm now. Falling in love with the ATRs, quiet, handle very well on dry and wet roads, can feel them bite in on the dirt tracks
