i've found some tires for cheap. they are a set of 4 235/75 R15 Firestone Destination LE tires. 30 each for 3 and the guy said since there was curb rash on the 4th he'd give it to me for free. they only have 8500 miles on them he said bout 75% tread left. now just to go to the bank and get the money. Was looking for the same tires as is on the truck now 255/70 Firestone Indy 500's. but couldnt find any used with a good amount of tread for cheap. thank god i found these cause my right rear is bald almost. most people would say its bald.

Its not bald, its just a custom racing slick.

lol. it took a lot of hard work to get them like that. getting a custom racing slick isnt easy. its a lot of time on the throttle and brake. a whole lot of hard take offs to squeel the hell out of the tires.

I had a set of tires on my old Cougar that looked about the same. They were pretty nice on dry pavement. Rain, not so much. :D

Those arent so bad, you are just getting to the wear bars and the tread pattern is still somewhat defined. One of my co workers kept putting off getting new rubber and ended up with literal racing slicks. Not that he would roast the tires or anythng, he just likes to get his moneys worth. He likes to live on the edge too, 3 bald tires and the 4th one is the spare, time to run from a hurricane 7 hours away. He has since replaced those, I wish I had gotten a pic of them.
