    Hey all...

    Well, the time has come to change my wheel and tire setup...

    I have a set of 4 BFG KM2s in very good condition at 12/32 and one brand new spare KM2 at 19/32...

    Size - 285-75-16

    $550 cash for the set...

    Tires should be coming off the truck on 4/15, so would like to get a deal going so as to have them picked up literally as they come off the truck...

    If I can manage to borrow some 17s to get some new tires sooner, than I will take these off sooner...

    I will get some detailed tire pics up tomorrow...

    Are you sticking with KM2's? 33s? and getting the eagle alloy wheels?

    im going to switch up to 17s...

    that, and like the guys on CT will tell you, i change tires like a girl changes tampons...

    i typically change out tires once a year...

    my last set before the KM2s were still at 70% and i made the mistake of letting the tire shop have them when i could have sold them for a few hundred bux...

    i figured i better not make the same mistake twice...

    my only dilemna is that someone recently called dibs on my KM2s when i sell them, but i cant for the life of me remember who it was... hahahaha...

    Wow, now that's a deal. I'm actually in the market for some new shoes. Don't know that I can take them literally as they come off the truck, but i can pick them up shortly after. let me know if you remember who called dibs.

    ya know, surprisingly, no chunks...

    these are the first tires i have had that did not chunk up...

    so far, i have had the BFG Long Trails, Pro Comp ATs, BFG AT, Yokohama Geolandar AT-2, Firestone Destination MT, 2 sets of Cooper STT, and now the KM2s...

    8 sets of tires since 2004, and every single set got chewed up and torn off except the current set...

    if they weren't over $300 each in 17s, i would consider running them again...

    Wow, thats great that they didn't chunk. My current tires are done and I was actually just pricing the KM2's on Discount tire but thought i'd check the for sale thread for a deal. 550 cash and pick up if you're dibs caller doesn't come forth.

    and while it sucks, some of those retail places pay their employees really well.

    yep...

    well, i applied at one mall portrait studio and the manager felt i would find the position beneath me and would not stay around long enough to be worth hiring me...

    i told her i just wanted to work and to just consider me...

    im waiting on an answer...

    Yeah that sucks, you're trying to find something, and everyone feels that anyone with experience will leave the second they get a chance. they don't stop to think that you could bring you skills to their company and help them to really prosper. it's sad that no one has any common sense anymore.

    anyways, let me know if the dib caller is going to take them. i'll stand by with the cash money.
