Monday I respond to an ad about some free 32" tires with toyota wheels(no pics), thinking it was going to be steelies with bald tires I still agree to go pick them up, I get there and to my suprise the guy pulls these wheels and tires out of his garage.........score!

 

Freee????

 

yep, the guy got rid of his truck a while ago and he just wanted to clean up his garage.

 

You totally scored! Nice guy to just give away cool stuff like that too.

 

Dirty garages make people crazy sometimes and it's nice to be around when that happens;nice grab.

 

Totally opposite from my latest craig'slist dealing.

I saw an add for some stock Tacoma wheels with tires for a reasonable price, so I e-mailed the dude to tell him I am interested, I have cash and don't play games. Great he says, but actually the wheels are still on the truck.(?) OK, so he says he is going to get his new wheels and tires mounted in the next day or two and he will let me know when I can come pick up the old ones. He has my e-mail and my cell #, but I haven't heard squat in almost two weeks now. I e-mailed him once, but decided I'm not gonna chase him around trying to buy his stuff. I'm sure he got a better offer, and just isn't man enough to tell me. Oh, well it was a deal, but nothing earth shattering. If he calls me now, I'm just gonna tell him to get bent.

 

Well done.
Is that a Toyota centre cap on the front!

 

Those are arcane things called "manual hubs"

 

i buy and sell stuff on CL all the time. i've had hit and miss experiences .

 

That website has been nothing but good to me. I've sold and bought my last three vehicles off of there. I also traded 2 engines through it. Congrats on your new wheels and tires.

 

Very nice score on the wheels/tires

 

So what's the price on scrap aluminum these days? Those wheels each weigh 22-25lbs, I think it's close to .75 - $1/lb - I'd say you scored. (not saying you should sell them for scrap, just pointing out the very least they are worth)

 

nicely done

right time and right place

I just scored maybe 5 tons of rock and gravel for free but of course had to go and shovel it and transport it. Still can not complain for free. I lost track counting the number of loads to move it, a Tundra woulda been nice for a few weeks there.....

 

very nice score!!

 

totally awsome score ! im waiting for my score to arive 2001 5 spoke 16alloys from ebay 230 shipped!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yes! nice as good as you did but hey what the hell
