Hell 250 bucks for those doesn't seem too bad. Even if they're not the best tire in the world they're BFGs for $250. You might be able to get them for 200 or 225 cash.

i cant believe yall have never heard of the Land Terrains, plenty of guys run them down there, i wouldnt take them to far off-road but they are great for a street tire.

Take um

Although they are the same size I run right now and I want something bigger. But if you need tires I'd say its a score.

Up in Canada, they are sold exclusively at Canadian Tire stores. You won't find them on the BFG website. I ran a set for 3 years (50000 miles) before replacing them with my current Firestone Destination MTs. The first year, they were great in mud, dirt, rocks, snow. The second year, they sucked in the winter, but were still ok in the mud, dirt, rocks. This year, they really sucked in the winter, and they really sucked in the mud, but were still OK in the dirt and rocks. I took them off a few weeks ago (with about 5/32" left on the threads - they wore quite well) and I replaced them with Firestone Destination MT's of the same size. It is night and day difference.

For the price, if they are brand new, you can't go wrong... you should get a couple of good years out of them.
