WTB: (Want to Buy) cheap/free road worthy tires (16" or 18")

Uncle Tattoo · 09-29-2010, 11:07 AM

long story short, the tires on my 18's have wicked camber wear and one of them has sprung a small leak. i dont have the money to buy a new set of 4 for the wheels.

i have 6 stock 02 wheels that i can use until i can afford new tires for the 18's, but none of the tires match (2 of one brand are directional, going the same way, 2 are worn down re92's, and 2 are like brand new so the diamater is larger than the other 2 pairs anyway)

i know its very unsafe to run with different circumference tires so i looking for either a decently worn set (means 4 wheels!) of 225/45/18 or any size 16 that will fit stock 02 wheels, that still have life left that may be able to get me by for a few months.

i put cheap/free because i literally dont have much money AT ALL to get these but i need them and hoped someone would be that nice generous person lol.

OR if you happen to have a set of wheels i could borrow and run for a few months, that would be AMAZING.

*[disclaimer]: please dont offer to sell me your set of wheels with tires unless its under $100. im not looking for another set of wheels right now. also i will NOT trade you my wheels, so dont ask. [/disclaimer]*

If you are looking for just rubber to get through the rest of the year, maybe, then i got a set of 18's in the garage. They have like..2-3 mm? of tread left.
You can have them for like, a $20 spot. and you gotta come pick up.
