Default Need TIRE HELP

I currently have the Vredesteins on there now. 315s and 275s. It's time for new back one's but I would prefer to buy all four since it's cheaperon shipping. 315 is not a good size to find local.

The cheapest I have found the same set I have is $730 shipped. These tires did pretty well 280 Treadwear. Lasted about a year. I think roughly 20-25K miles

well ill be switching back and forth rims cuz i have nittos on another set, but he said they lasted 20-25k miles. im asking if they hooked though, or do they spin bad? reason i asked is cuz i have 4.10s, not that i really race but i like to show off.

I think I have a good idea! I only paid 1200 for wheels and tires on ebay Chrome machs.. i think I might do a wheel change and sell these one's with decent front tires for $500. Now that sounds like a plan. If wife agrees same amount of money
