[QUOTE="ThreeShadows, post: 527466, member: 6370"] this is three shadows difficult child 1 i work at a tire store called MR. Tire and every so often we have a sale going on. but honestly i would say do your research and find the lowest possible price online and print it off. in doing this you can take it into a store and they will most likely price match or try and beat the price so they get your business. That's what we do. but it has to be the same tire that they stock. online stores such as discounttiredirect.com or tirerack.com have really good deals on tires. the issue with buying used tires (like you found out) is honesty. the best way to see how old a tire is, is by looking at the DOT # it is on the side of the tire (may not be on both sides). the last 4 digits of the dot (DOT#-xxx-xxx-0412) the way to read that is 04-12 that is the 4th week of the year 2012. that will tell you the age. also take a tread depth gauge (bought at any auto parts store) to measure the depth ideal tread depth is between 5 and 10 32nd of an inch. anything bellow that is JUNK. there are places that deal in used tires that are good but im not sure what they are down south. if you have any other questions ask my mom and she will get to me and i will do my best to help further. good luck and my mom says she loves you.
