Yea KP I was out running errands. Tempting. Just looking to see what is out there right now and what amount of monies I'll need to set aside right now.
Hey Glenn, search C/L for a set of base model take-off JK 16" steel wheels & tires. They're a little on the skinny side but man you can't beat the deals on them, especially if they're for a street beater. I bought a set of 5 with under 3,000 miles on them for $250, then sold the wheels for $50. You just can't beat a set of (nearly new) Goodyears for $200! They're on Wendy's ZJ now
Edit: woops...just saw that you're looking for a more off roady type tire.

Well right now I'd like to get something that will last a while and be capable at URE when dry. I have yet to see any JK rims and tires around me. Really just looking atm to see if anyone has any sweet deals. KP does but I was looking more in the price range you posted about.
These were the closest I could find to you with a quick search. I know these are way too far off but it gives you an idea of the deals you can find on them. Our set were the same wheels & tires at the same asking price. I offered $250 and the deal was done, then I sold the wheels and we had ourselves a good, inexpensive set of tires with nearly 100% tread. A good thing to do is go by a Jeep dealership that puts lifts and aftermarket wheels & tires on their Jeeps. Ask them about a set of take-offs, or ask them to give you a lead on who buys their take-offs since sometimes shops are under an agreement to buy the sets from the dealerships. These will get you by for a few years until you decide to go bigger, than you can probably sell and recoup a lot of your initial investment on them.
