More Freebies For Me

[dasbulliwagen]

Parts dept at work was cleaning out and found 3 TJ Canyons. He had them sitting in the service dept door way. I asked him how much, and he said for me to just take them, as he couldnt sell just three. They are in really good shape including the center caps. Does anyone think I can sell just three? And how much could I ask for them? I may keep them and find a 4th later, but then again, if I find someone that needs them, Id let them go. Thanks for the help!

It's really hard to sell a set of three. People either want a set of four or just one to complete a set. I've had a set of three 285-20'S off a 2006 Dodge for a year now. Gone from $200 a tire down to $75 each and never received one call on them.

I would think there's not a whole lot of love out there for chrome 20" rims with hammered on wheel weights.............

[jimoshel]

AH,,ER,,Ahem Don. Those aren't hammered on wheel weights. She's a fisher woman and and that's where she stores her sinkers.

[HOrnbrod]

Ah, okay. There's enough weight there to last her quite awhile. Try pulling all the lead off and re-advertise with new pics. Might help? Si?

[jimoshel]

Never even thought about that. Certainly worth a try. Let you know how it turns out.I can't believe a reputable tire shop actually did that. I get a little PO'D everytime I think about it. She let her kid borrow the truck one night. He hit a curb, wiping out a tire and rim. Instead of going to JY and getting a matching rim for $40 they go to the tire store and get a non matching rim for $200 and another $200 for the tire. Doesn't have 500 miles on it and she goes back to the same store and gets four new tires and rims. So now she's got three matching tires and rims and one odd ball and she wants me to sell them for her. Don't mind me. Just venting. :fs1:

Those Dodge 20's aren't what they seem.  They are just an ordinary 20" aluminum wheel with a plastic chrome cover on top.  The kicker is the plastic chrome cover stops at the wheel lip so hammer on wheel weights can be used because they use a special coated weight that are meant for aluminum wheels.  I laughed when the salesman said as a selling point of my Jeep Grand Cherokee, it's got Chrome wheels!  I corrected him, yeah plastic Chrome.  He didn't know what I was talking about. :doh:

I guess Ill just keep them for a while, and see if I can find another.

[jimoshel]

Sorry, didn't mean to hi jack your thread. But that's what I would do.

I've got a single that i'm not using, it's got a tire on it right now though. If your interested let me know.

[FrankTheDog]

Shouldn't be to hard to find a single on Craigslist.

I picked up a set of ravines that way.

All unused spares with new Goodyear 30" 9.50 GSA's on them for less than $400.

Took 3 months and some driving but I got them.

[FrankTheDog]

Two nice ones on CL for $95 in Jersey.

[dasbulliwagen]

Ill keep you in mind. Thanks. Youre about 4-5 hours away from me though.

They're not mine. Just a quick look on Craigslist for an example.
