99 exp tires
I've had this truck for the last 10K and it has right at 80 K on it now. It looks like these maybe the original tires. They look like they have about half tread but I doubt they were ever rotated. The fronts are thinning a bit on the inside. Actually the drivers front is just beginning to show belt, while the others are still looking ok.
This truck has the auto 4WD. My question is can I get away for a while just replaceing the one tire, both front tires, or do I need to bite the bullet and do them all at once. I planned to do this in the spring after the income taxes come in, but I'm afraid the truck has other ideas.

If the tires are 235/75 x 15's, there are a millions of vehicles around that use that size. Should be easy to find a decent pair of used tires....With 4WD, I'd try to match the brand and model, and even the wear level, as well as possible. Another advantage of that size is that they are relatively cheap because of the competition factor. Something like the new BFG Long Trail T/A Tours, which I just bought a set of, are a great deal.
Don't drive on it as is, except to the tire store...
