Arizona Titans - can you help me with some tires?

O'silent1 · 02-05-2007, 10:44 PM

Hey all! Sorry I missed the Scottsdale meet... I really wanted to go but couldn't make it. Oh well, cut to the chase... My 2004 needs some new shoes and I was wondering if those of you that have put on lifts and gone with bigger tires still have your stock 18's laying around somewhere? I am not in immediate need of them but will need them sometime before June. I am looking for new or nearly new but am looking here 'cause I can't afford the "new" price right now. I tow a 7K lb. trailer and don't know if my tires will hold out for another long distance trip. How 'bout it? Anybody looking to turn that rubber laying around in your garage into some cash? Phoenix, Tucson, Flagstaff? Let's talk! Thanks guys!

You looking just for the tires no wheels? I have a set of LE 2004 rims and tires (tread is probably about 50%) but if you are interested let me know what you were thinking to pay? I was hoping to sell the wheels as a set on here but havent gotten around to posting it.

Yes, I'm interested in the rubber only. LE rims would be nice but I don't need them and certainly can't afford them. If, as you have guesstimated they are at about 50% would you be willing to pro rate the price at 50% as well? For example, a new 18" stock tire goes for around $160. Half of that would be $80 x 4 = $320. You wouldn't happen to want a nearly new full (arm rests, head rests, top and bottom) front and rear set of the Nissan waterproof seat covers as part trade would you? I paid $350 total, put them on for a few months, my wife decided she did not like them, took them off and they have been sitting in a box ever since. If so, we can negotiate the price on those as well. Thanks for the response.
EDIT: I guess it would help to give some specs about the seat covers... they are for a 2004 CC, full front buckets, full rear split, grey on black. They fit snug and I thought they looked pretty sharp when installed. If you would like some pictures, I would happily oblige.

Ya know,
An E rated tire will make a big difference on that trailer tow capability and performace.
Shop carefully. Read reviews at Tire Rack dot com.

Wally,

The E rated BFG all terrains I put on mine a few months back ride very hard on bumps, but great in the corners. I tow a 9K trailer and figured the tires would work well. E stands for excessive with respect to load capacity for a Titan. I'm having other issues with these tires not balancing. As soon as the wheels I want are available I'm going to get some 285/70/17 Goodyear Silentarmor in a D load range put on. Anybody got some 17" offroad package wheels I can borrow for a month or two? or for sale?
