Price and rims are eye-catching at first glance, but upon closer inspection, I'd say "30% tread left" is quite a generous estimation. I'd say the tires are basically shot and need replacing (I would if they were mine on my vehicle). So essentially you're buying the wheels, lugs and caps for $600 PLUS you're looking at the cost to replace 4 tires that will fit those rims.
You sure this is such a great deal??? Or were you just pointing out their curb-appeal???
Just my honest opinion; and certainly no harm intended.

yep! I agree
I hate the new 20" rims with offroad tires. I guess I'm old school. These rims are for Dodge and Chebby mall crusiers.

A great price for local pickup only for that wheel. The tires are worthless since they are bald. I like smaller wheels on offroad trucks though.

Maybe 15% at most.
But they are just for looks, right? For that cosmetic effect when you go on those long trips where no one knows you?

I'm definitely not interested in buying them....Just hadn't seen 20" wheels for our trucks, so I thought it was a strange look...
Besides, with my factory lift, they would just barely fit!!!!!!
That is, of course, based on the recommendations of Yeti and others around here....

You meant fake "head locks" right, Yeti?
I saw that look on your face when the little thong lady put you in one...

Bling, bling.
I dont have those exact tires, but I do have the 235/85 Trxus MTs on my Discovery.
I will never by SS/Trxus again. Huge POS. BFG all the way.
BTW those tires are absolutely shot.
And the wheels.... Gawd, obviously the owner got sick of them.
