I need your guy's opinions

Im looking into buying me used tires just to get by for right now, just to last me a year or two. What do you think about these tires? Are they worth it?

4 37x13.50x20 Toyo MT's

i wouldnt get those. he said the sidewalls are cracked. tells me they might be starting to dry rot

Sent from my tapatalk equipped Transformer TF101

agreed^ You want the sidewalls perfect on any tire

Thanks guys, thats what I figured. I dont need Mud terrains, Id prefer A/T, but people are posting the M/T for pretty cheap so I thought what the hell, it will save me a lot of $$. But oh well.. will keep searching =]

I'd buy them now. The cracking on the side wall is from tire shine drying them out. It does not affect the drivability at all. They are great tires!

 

[ram702]

He just sent me a picture of the "slight cracks". No thanks haha

So would 37's fit your truck? Are you lifted? If not, no way is that size gonna fit.

Got an aftermarket wheel with a more negative backspace on it than a stock wheel? If not, that size won't fit.

much agreed better off getting ones out of a store rather than eBay, at least some has warranties you can get on the tires

No way they would fit right now. I was just going to get them for later when I am lifted

Ok how about these, like I said its just to hold me over for about a year, maybe two.

toyo tires 37x13.50xR20..590.00obo

And can I put my stock 20's in them? I know ill need a wheel spacer, but will it work?

 

[CircleCityConcepts]

Those Toyo tires are down to about 20% tread; I wouldn't waste your money on those either

 

[Hemitom]

IMHO if you are getting tires you would be better off just buying the ones you want new instead of used...unless the ones you have are so far gone that they need to be replaced like ASAP.

 

[Mega Mike]

There is definitely a lot of BS with the 65% tread life. You would be lucky if they lasted a year.

Why get used tires now when it'll be a while till you're lifted? The condition will also worsen just sitting around. Get some new tires that are the correct size when you do the lift

If you don't need them now and looking for a future lift, I would keep looking! I found some brand new Interco TrXus 35x12.5's on ebay several years ago that some guy bought, he put them on his truck and they rubbed so he took them off and didn't want them. They still had all the little nubbies all around the tire so you could tell he really didn't drive on them.

He sold all 5 of them for $500 just to get rid of them. So, if there is no hurry just keep looking you'll find a deal out there. I still have them today in the garage mounted on AR wheels. I did use them for a winter set of tires but haven't used them for a couple years now since my truck sits in the garage now too during the winter.
