Default FML seriously
Walk outside this morning and my drivers side rear tire is flat as a board...took me 2 hrs to find two used 245/75-16's...dont wanna buy new ones cause I have been looking for a set of 3rd gen 17 inch wheels. But anyway..I couldnt find a set of RWL tires, so I had to get RBL tires...now Ruby looks like a retard with the RWL's up front and RBL's in the rear...

Just couldnt justify spending $600+ on new tires when I wont be able to use them when I find my 17 inch wheels...but got a good deal on the used ones...2 Maxxis AT's for $80 installed...

Yeah, it's unreal how much tires are nowadays....8 years ago, I could get 33/12.50-16.5 Wild Country MT's all day NEW for $400 installed...now a no name 245/75-16 is $123 + tax, then slap on another $20 for mounting and balancing...

Nothing wrong with used tires. I did it til I could afford my new ones. And no one will know the difference when you are doing 45 or above.
