do you live in St. Pete? go to places that sell used tires and see if you can get something descent, I know you can get 2 descent used tires for like $40. If you live in St Pete and no where Bob Lee's is at go down there, they sell used tires and have a TON, i used to work there!

AK Tires has some used tires... I dunno. I think they might be a bit overpriced for used tires. :dunno:

i just need something cheap to throw on my spare teardrops, does costco do the 9$ mounting and balancing down here too?

+1 for AK Tire.

I just priced out a tire from my ex's Mustang. $40 for a 245/17 mounted and balanced. Pretty decent deal if you ask me. :)

a lot of dealerships thow away used tires when them rich folks have their cars serviced though them. Sometimes you can pick up free Potenza's from the BMW dealerships although they sometimes have plugs.

i work for tire kingdom, but like most of you know i work in Scarysota so for most of you jabrones its a little drive, and we all know how you guys like to whine. I can get 195/60/15 h rated Visa's for about $40 a piece installed, bran new.. you will never find used tires for 240's down buy me because i get them all. i guess it pays to work at a tire store if your into drifting. I hear Tire kingdom is hireing!!! hahahahahahahahah i just need more rims for all the tires i have.

I usually go to Bob's Tires, it's a little place on Seminole Blvd. a little bit N of Walsingham on the E side. I think they sell used tires for like $8 per and it's about another $8 for mounting and balancing I think.

there used tires so there verying wear. but most have quite a bit of life on them by non drift standerds. a used car dealer bought a bunch to put on his used cars. not may are dry rotted. and the ones that have some rot its not that bad. for 5$ a tire i would expect them to be one time use only. maybe two sessions depending on where you go and how you drive.
