How lucky can someone get??

so my dad called me and told me he got me some tire for my 87 4x4. i thought kool. they are 1/2 tread bf goodrich all terrians. someone he knows gave them to him for is truck. but his truck is 2wd and they would be small on there too. so he gave them them to me.

some one i work with has a 92 yota x cab. i looked in the bed and seen a early chrome sr5 wheel (79-83 trucks and fj 60 had them). i asked him about it and he said that was his spare. he then told me he had the complete set minus one of the locking hub center caps. the rears had the factory chrome center cap with TOYOTA in red on them. he told me if i gave him a spare i could have the entire set. so i did it.

i got a great set of tire AND MY FAVORITE SET OF OEM CHROME WHEELS ALL FOR FREE!! i just had to pay $70 to have them mounted and balenced.

How Hard are those rims to find???

Sounds great. But a picture speaks a thousand words.
