Hey Everyone,
I will be going to the American Muscle Mustang show in PA this coming August. While there, I will be taking part in the burnout competition.
Since I obviously do not want to use my new GT500 tires, or even my winter set for that matter as they are a year old (I really did not think this through), the plan was to buy two cheap used tires for 100-125 and mount them on my winter wheels.
That is proving to be harder then expected due to the 19inch wheel combo. So I ask the following.
1) Does anyone have 2 used tires that will fit a 19x9 wheel that they want to get rid of for cheap? 255/40/19 was stock but something close can work
2) If you have 18" tires mounted on wheels that you want to get rid of, I would be willing to either buy the set if they are cheap enough, or pay you to borrow the wheels and use the tires for the contest. I have no intention of popping a tire while doing this so do not worry about your wheels.
Anyway, Let me know. I am starting to run out of options.
Here is a picture of Scarlett as she sits now, for your troubles. Thanks for your help.
On a side note to any Oppos going to the show. Leave me a reply and lets see if we can meet up.

If you take a swing by Minnesota I could get you 3 or 4 sets of rear tires in roughly that size for cheap.

Thanks!
I believe one of the moderators has to do that. I think all I can do is recommend the comment.

That would be one hell of a swing! How bad do you think shipping would be?

I posted asking one of the mods to. They're usually pretty quick about it.
That'll be 1 million dollars.

I got an unmounted 215/65-15 tire. Will that do? :p
If you're just doing it for burnout purposes, just get any used wheels/tires on CL that will fit. They can even be like 15 inches if you're just gonna shred them.
Kumho makes these colored smoke tires which give off red smoke for maximum fun.

I thought about that. Interestingly enough, Craigslist in my area hasn't been much help. Its either 4 wheels with out tires that I can't afford or four tires but no wheels in a wheel size I don't have. The red smoke would be cool though.

I see you're in PA. Is Philadelphia close enough to you? Because once you get to a big city you get more choices.

I'm actually in Staten Island NY, though I hit up most of those places already. I'm definitely going to keep trying.

WHAT? You're in NYC and you can't find a used tire shop that has your tires?

You Are Awesome! Thank you for the link. And yeah I struck out all over Staten Island. I couldn't believe it.
Im going to check a guy in brooklyn I know as well though I just found a place in Monmouth County that has a crap set too. He wants 100 but it saves me from driving all the way to Philly.

Good luck either way!
I can't wait to see the burnout. I hope you get it on video :)

Out of curiosity, are you attending the show? I think I will have my girlfriend film it. I was thinking of sticking my action cam on the car but that wont show you very much.
