    So I was doing a walk around on my truck and i noticed my driverside rear tire has worn significantly more than the other side. The tires have some uneven wear on them already from being in the front and the guy before me having a bad alignment, just a little uneven wear on the inside. My fronts are still a good 40% as well as the one rear, and the other one is about 25%.

    Im prowling craigslist for a decent used wheel and tire package in the 35 inch tire area. Im budgeting about 600 to 700.

    I figured I could get 1 tire to replace the worn one, but then Im looking at a set of 3 tires by next year and thats just a pain in the ass, so Im opting to buy a newsed set and sell mine off while theyre still worth something. Hoping to get $300 to $350 for mine. figure thats 100 bucks a wheel and tire, plus a free wheel with a worn tire. I was going to paint them black and I still may do that if I find just a set of tires, but its easier just to bolt them up instead of taking them to be mounted.

    what are yalls thoughts if any?

    He said 70% but I guess I'll never know until I actually look at them.

    I had the mickeys on my first truck and had to replace them after a year, they wore bad. I like the toyo open countrys...that's what I had on my F250 before I lifted it. I went to the Nitto mud grapplers after I lifted it because they look more aggressive ..but you should check out the toyo open countrys.
