$300 obo

I wasn't the right buyer for this sale as I didn't need the Rally wheels, but this should be a good bolt-on deal for someone else! - Steven

I just sent five 15" Polycast SSIV's from upstate NY to West Virginia for $85 using Fastenal 3PL. The total weight was 175 lbs including the pallet. Very easy to deal with

I think that means these were made in 2006, have these been on a car since then or sitting somewhere inside/outside in storage? I'll jump in line for them if they are still available. I'm in Lafayette and drive to Indy twice a week so I could probably arrange a pickup.

Thanks
Tim

Yup, made in December 2006. Just about one year over the limit for usage, I wouldn't take a chance on them. I wouldn't want to be liable if for any reason an accident occurred.

I wouldn't think twice about using them if they were in good shape. I bought a set of 245 60 15's off a Corvette 6 or 8 years ago and still run them today.

They're in the business to sell tires. Do really believe this??????

Inspect your tires and make logical informed decisions

Ya, I do. For what I said are liability reasons. That was just one quote I found quickly. There are many more on the IATN forums. May they be OK for the occasional user around town? Probably. Would I drive on the highway with them? Maybe. Would I trust them not to separate because of their age even though they look nice? No.
It seems tires have changed a lot in the last few decades, like everything else. The compounds don't seem as long lasting as years ago. It's planned obsolescence, like in almost every item you buy.
If everything you bought lasted forever, everybody would be out looking for a job. I see tires every day that need to be replaced and the owner just doesn't care. I prefer to keep the house I bought.

Due to the education I received. I will keep the wheels and tires. I don't drive the car much so they work great for me. They hold air, a lot of tread, no cupping, no flat spots,no dry rotting or cracking and look good. I didn't realize they were as old as they were and realIy don't care how old they are. I don't expect anyone to buy them if that information mattters to you.

BF Goodrich recommends their tires be replaced after 10 years

http://www.bfgoodrichtires.com/help.page

It is impossible to predict when tires should be replaced based on their calendar age alone . However, the older a tire the greater the chance that it will need to be replaced due to the service-related evolution or other conditions found upon inspection or detected during use. While most tires will need replacement before they achieve 10 years, it is recommended that any tires in service 10 years or more from the date of manufacture, including spare tires, be replaced with new tires as a simple precaution even if such tires appear serviceable and even if they have not reached the legal wear limit. For tires that were on an original equipment vehicle (i.e., acquired by the consumer on a new vehicle), follow the vehicle manufacturer's tire replacement recommendations, when specified (but not to exceed 10 years).
A quick check of sites not affiliated with tire manufacturers yields the 10 year number as well as long as the tires are in good condition with no visible signs of defects
