You want the LT version, not the AT version.

why does he need the LT version.. E rated is over kill for a 4runner.. it adds a ton of dead weight and kills gas mileage and acceleration..

unless he's towing i don't see why he needs LT tires on a 4runner

If he likes dirt or offroading, he wants LT's. LT's have more ply's on the sidewall and can handle more abuse/weight while offroad when aired down.

If you're talking about the BFG A/T KO (which, btw, is LT only), that would indeed be a great price. A little too great. Better check the shipping and handling charges. I'm guessing you'll find them pretty high. Also, get a verification of the date codes before ordering. Those are the two things I can think of that might explain the price.

Yup, just as I suspected. Tires are not in inventory, discontinued item and web person never removed from website.
