Check your local school district and see who they deal with.  Our school district leases tires and return them at less than 40% wear.

The tires then go up for sale at tire dealer ad used tires.

I usually pay 100.00 for used tires that size mounted and balanced.

I usually pay $25 but I was wanting to go new....or near new.

I am in California which tends to be pricey compared to other places. Tire tread depth is usually between: 10/32-16/32.

I replace mine at 6/32nd . In CA fronts can not be less than 4/32nd & rear less than 2/32nd.

I'm in MT....if it rolls, its legal.  LOL!  True but I want to keep good steers on for obvious reasons.  Rear blow out is liveable, front blowout I can do without.
