I know this is a long shot but maybe someone is pulling some old ones off?

I need a new spare...I lost one to a sidewall puncture so looking for one...not really worried about tread depth ...just need it as a spare.

need 285 75 16.

thanks!!

I have a friend that may have one - his are either 285 or 315's ?? I'll check as he is putting a bigger size on his stupid looking Chebby truck with exhaust that hangs down and running boards and mud flaps........ He's a tool - but a nice guy. LOL I try to get him to make the thing "real". :rolleyes:

I'll let you know - but i know they still look pretty good and they have *NEVER been off-highway - sad but true. :banghead:

Hadn't seen them in a bit - not so pretty:

315-70-16 and two are just barely OK, but fronts are worn and cupped REALLLLLLLLLLY badly from the typical GM IFS lifted wrong issues.

I told him they were worth like $10 each max and i knew someone (you) who would take them for basically the costs of shipping a couple..... his brother said he'd give $200 for them - what an idiot.

Sorry man, I tried but some people are dumb.

no biggy...I really need the 285 75 16 size

mine havent cupped in the least bit actually, I have 22000 on them and they still have some nice tread on them.

I may just end up buying a new spare, I plan on getting the same size and tread again as they are really a great tire and the size works perfect with my suspension set up.

thanks again for trying

I just picked up a set of 34 10.50's on Pirate and I am pretty sure I saw someone on there selling some 285's not too long ago. Also keep your eye on ebay and craiglist.

Classifieds: Axles/Tires/Wheels...

You just posted on the thread haha. He might sell just one since he has a set of 5. There are a few sets on craigslist as well.

And if the vendors section Axles/Tires/Wheels. The guy Foothill Motorsports is selling swampers that are new at a really good price and low shipping. I could have picked up 4 new 34 10.50's shipped for like 665$ or something is what he quoted me, I would pm about a single and he might even waive the shipping charge since you are just getting a single
