Anyone running the Milestar Patagonia M/T tire?

[laniercruzer]

Well I just paid $300 per tire so I’d say that’s pretty good...doh!

Do these Milestar tire prices ever drop? I've been watching the price on the 38x13.50's and they've been at $250 (Walmart) since before Christmas. Wondering if I should just bite the bullet and purchase them. Worried if I wait they'll increase.

They've been trending upward but once in a while for whatever reason you'll see a price drop, not sure about 38s though. I got my 295/70s for $124 last year but have seen them as high as $225.
$250 for 38x13.5s sounds like a solid deal though.

Just paid $245 on Northridge, free shipping, no tax. Forum discount does not apply to the tires though

That's what I'm thinking. I might just have to jump on it. In my never ending quest to get the absolute best deal, I may just end up getting burned.

38's at Northridge are $299. Seems to be the going price everywhere but Walmart.

The prices used to jump around quite a bit. Since they have really picked up in popularity they seem to mostly increase.

Walmart had the 38s for $192. I watched to see if they would go down. They went up to $205. I waited to see if they would go down and they jumped to $250. They dropped back down to $205 and I jumped on them. Few days later back up to $250.

BTW, I didn't know this at the time, but Walmart has price guarantee. If the price goes down within 30-90 days (can't remember exactly) you can contact them and get reimbursed.

That's definitely a good perk to have. In the end, I decided to have Discount Tire price match. Even though I'll be mounting them myself, I like just pulling up and having them rotate the 120lb monstrosities while I sit back and enjoy a cup of joe.

Discount Tire is typically my go to. They are a solid company.

$250 for 38” mud tires is a steal! Most of them are $300+ with the national brands going up to $400.

Well, I did jump on them at that price. Pick them up this afternoon. Still feel like I'm paying full price. I don't like to pay full price.

Super happy with my 37 Pats so far (lol...a week). Even happier with America's Tire (Discount tire).

I put them through the ringer on my purchase, switching from 37s to 35s and then back to 37s. They took it all in stride, all while continuing to match the original price of the 37s they had listed at $226 on their website that had since changed to $257 ea, mounting the original 37s up for a test fit, swapping all 5 to the 35s and then back again after my wife went "huh..there is too much gap showing...".

Great service

Hello everyone, I just read through most of this thread looking at what you all think of the Patagonias. I have been looking around at all different types of tires and these seem like they could be a good fit for me (Plus I love how they look!).

I'll be doing quite a few beach trips this year along with a couple trips to a few different trails in VA/NC. I'm not looking to do anything too crazy with it, I'm aiming for more easy/moderate trails.

I am on a bit of a budget though, so after reading through this thread I think these would be great at least as a good starting point for my 2-Door JL. I am debating between the 285/70R17 & the 295/70R17 most likely mounted on my stock wheels for now.

Some of my questions/concerns are:

I saw on Milestar's site that the minimum wheel size is 7.5 inches for both size tires, which the stock wheel has, but I was wondering if there could be any issue with this? Has anyone else mounted one of these tires on a stock wheel? I'd like to upgrade the wheels eventually, just trying to save a bit of money if possible.

If I go for the slightly bigger 295/70R17 would I have any rubbing on road with my stock sport? I like the look of the size and I was planning on adding a 1.5 inch spacer lift soon too, just trying to figure out if it would be best to do the spacer lift at the same time or before adding the tires.

Thanks in advance for any comments/suggestions.

I scored a local deal on 35 inch Patagonias at $190 per tire for 5 tires. 315/70/r17 size.
Along with those, the shop bundled Icon rebounds for $190 a piece as well.
$1895 for a set of 5.

I personally haven’t mounted either size on a stock wheel, but I’ve seen a lot of people mount different 285’s on stock wheels without issues. If I am not mistaken, I think that is the stock size on most JL and JK rubicons. I think that is about the largest size you can go without issues. I do not think the 295’s will fit on the wheel properly and you’ll have some clearance issues.

I’ve heard good things about the 285 size tires, I think you’ll be happy with them.
