Time to upgrade the tyres on my 80 series cruiser (3in lift) - currently have 275/70/16s (31in) on aftermarket 16x8 alloys - now im looking to go bigger (up to 33") in probably a M/T pattern - but I'm having trouble finding decent prices?
Searching the internet, it seems back in '05 a ~33" tyre would have cost ~$300 new ... cheapest price so far I've had today has been $450 (BFG AT) a tyre!
Is this about average for these size tyres these days? Any idea if theres a "value" size (assuming tyre wholesalers buy in bulk etc)? 285/75/16 (33x11) or 305/70/16 (33x12) ?
