A few Tire Questions

I am consitering buying tires out of a local Want-Ad paper. The deal is I get 4 32/11.5/15 inch tires for $150, but 2 are BFGoodrich AT's and the other two are Goodyear Wrangler APT's. Apparently they both have good wear and were not used too much.

My question is other than looking bad is it really that bad to roll on two different types of tires?

Should I just wait and get two more BFG's when I have the cash?

I've heard they fit okay on the 15x7 Yota rim's but anyone have experience, they are the 4 spokes?

If not what is good backspacing for early IFS? These Cragar wheels are interesting but is 4" too much? ( CRR-3975160 on Summit)

Any advise would be helpful but the price is so good it seems like a good idea.

Thanks a lot,
Alex K

4 should be fine... i thinlk the stock yot rims are liek 4.5 bs


as far as the tires, if you are 4x4 avoid it... the wranglers suck and wont grip like the bfgs.... this will lead to problems offroad....

Yea that makes sense about the grip.

I am surprised that they are 4.5 backspacing they don't look that much, but i don't know too much about it exactly.

Also I was wondering how you can tell the old BFG AT's from the new ones? any one know seeing i am buying used.

Thanks,
Alex
