Looking for 4 good 235/75/15 tires for a Jeep Grand Cherokee .Don't want to give the rich guy in the area that has a controlling interests in all the stores for a hundred miles. Plus I'm broke. Any help.... Runk......
If you hurry, you may catch the tail end of the carcass-stripping from the cash for clunkers program. (I think the deadline for breaking down the hulks is about now.) There were a lot of Jeep GCs murdered in that program, so whatever the yard is in your area that bought the hulks, should have lots of rims and tires that were pulled off them.
On December 23 last year, I bought a used tire at Cowboy's Quality New & Used Tires, for my 1978 Dodge van.I don't drive that van much anymore, it just sits there in my carport, I have a lot of my old junk stored in that van.But I do crank it up two or three times each week and drive it around the block a few times.
The used tire has a 15 day warranty.Of course it leaks air, that means I better get that tire back to Cowboy's real quick and get them to fix it right.
Speaking of Cowboys, and Cowgirls, and not meaning to be too off topic,

One of those gals (Jeri) and her twin sister used to live next door to me.They are both divorced.They are both Tomboys too. cuhulin, the off topic dude
That Slime stuff for leaky tires, does it really work? Or is there another brand name of goop that is better? By the time I got to Cowboy's used tires place this late this afternoon, they had already chain locked the doors and gone wherever. cuhulin
I always carry a can of leak stop in the trunk. It works and has saved me many times. Or inflated the tire long enough to get somewhere else. I like the kind with the hose because you don't have to get the valve stem on the bottom. I also carry a rope type puncture plug kit. Have used that a lot more. Once every couple of months at least. Then use the leak stop to inflate the tire.
It works fine in most cases, but I am of the old school who wants a puncture fixed, not just snotted up. Stop Leak and such work fine, and are now water based and nonflammable propellant.
