Haha! I missed that. In case one stops working you have more on reserve...one way to get the customer past the warranty time frame.

The escape is fine, its the dumb **** rims that look like wagon wheels that I don't like. A truck needs a certain amount of sidewall rubber to keep proportions

The name for that one should be snowball

in this case, yes, those wheels are atrocious, BUT there's a demographic that pays for those... so I can sell them and pocket the difference.

Kind of risky trying to sell them for that price. I would guess $1000 if lucky. But I'm a little jade because I wouldn't pay $10 for them

22 Inch American Racing Wheels & Tires
* * * 22" Chrome Black Rims OBO * * *
22" Limited rims [BLADES] $1200

1000-1200... what ever.

Snow Tires
