Nice. BFGs are pricey when you start getting into the bigger sizes.

I just bought 4 new bfg all terrains also 35x12.5 x16.5. Love the way new tires ride... as far as hurting the wallet (discount tire= 0% interest for 12 months) well worth it! I got mine for $214 a tire about 1150 out the door. I thought was pretty good for such big tires (and thats with all the upgraded warranty)

Had some, lasted about 2 years. I am on the never-ending hunt for the perfect tire. I got some Remington Mudders online and man that was a mistake. Not even a year old and I may not pass inspection.
Anyone ever hear of Trail Cutters? My local tire shop sell alot of the RTs to construction workers because they are agressive enough and last a while (but then he's selling tires).

I'm on my second set of BFG All-Terrains and I have to say I'm extremely satisfied. The last set kept me for a year and a half and only wore out because my truck didn't have the proper alignment cams.

It would have cost me about $1200 for 35s (315/75/16) warranty and all but I lucked out and someone on craigslist had a set they were selling for $500 with the warranty.
