G/f's Xterra needed some replacement front tires to replace the stock BFG Rugged Fails. Discount Tire on eBay had a pair of used ones for cheap, so I snagged them. Most online reviews seem favorable, with some negative ones as well. I figured for the cheap price, they will be fine since two of the stockers lasted around 15K(?), so if the Xterra wears them out, no problem. If they really are terrible, off to Craigslist they go...

Discount Tire claimed that 78.57% tread left, or 11/32nds of an inch, which is the tread depth of new Rugged Fails.

Those bear a resemblance to Hankook ATM.
 






For being "used", there are about as close you can get to brand new...

I love buying 'used' tires now.

I found a sweet set of Wrangler Territories (Canadian version of Duratracs) for $220.
All 4 tires.. 90% or more for $220 cause he upgraded his from 235s to 31s.
They're awesome and the deal was even more awesome.
