Just for info, I recently purchased some BFG Radial T/As at Costco (2 - 255R6015 and 2 - 235R6015) for 313.00 out the door incl. tax (7.75%) w/lifetime balance/rotate/road hazard. I had to wait about 4 days to get them, but at Discount Tire down the street the price was about 450.00 for the same deal although they had them in stock. It was worth the wait for me. Costco doesn't stock BFG, but they can get them and probably others. It may be worth it to check them out.

Sam's Club is another cheap place to buy tires. I bought a set of BFG T/A 255/60/15 & 275/60/15 tires for $288+tax and mounting.

Guys,
I bought my BFG TA's earlier in the year at Sams Club. Sam's would not allow me to purchase the road hazard package. It was based on different tire sizes for the front and rear that would not allow for normal rotation maintenance. Guy at Sams said this would void a warranty. Sounds like Costco provides or allows for the hazzard package even if the tires are different sizes 235 & 255's.

Humm, I wonder if one can purchase drag radials through them? Could not hurt to ask I guess.

The only problem is (and I've run into it) is if you need to warranty replace a tire you could be "stuck" for a week till they order in and recieve a replacement.
