Here's the deal folks. I got my Konig Traffik 16's while in Korea thru Ebay, they both have Nitto 450's on them. When I got home and got to open the boxes up, the rims are in utterly perfect shape, but, unfortunately, the guy I bought them from decided to burn out all of the remaining tread on the front pair.
I DON'T have the money to buy some brand new tires right now, but I thought I might see if any of ya'lls have some used but in good shape 205 50 16's that I could get from you. Later, when these are ready to be replaced, I'll be getting some better new tires, I just need something for the meantime.
Thanks!

ok, here's what you can do. print out this page http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires.jsp?ti...romCompare1=yes there, go to any Sears Auto. i can tell you that those tires are stocked at most Sears, and they run almost double that price (prob $140 a piece). They Price Match plus 10% of the difference. So, instead of having to worry about it getting lost at UPS or some bullshit, you can have them do it for you and not have to worry about it through Tire Rack....and make sure you mention the 10% difference, we usually never do it wink.gif
EDIT: i just realized that sears charges way too much to balance (i believe we do), it would probably run $15/tire. so, maybe this isn't a good idea. haha. just ignore me
