    It was too good of a deal to not
    I didn’t even need tires, but figured I’d cycle some out

    Does anybody have a suggestion on what I should sell these for? 285/75/16 stt pros. ~26,000 miles on them. Rotated every 5,000 miles. I was going to run them for another year but Steve surprised me with a new set for Christmas. I’m thinking $200 but think that might be on the high side:notsure:. Any suggestions appreciated

    Right on, thanks!

    That was a pretty wet year. But all things considered. What month would (anyone with experience) be best for a spring trip

    March?
    April?
    May? (I think May would be starting to get too hot)
