Is he missing a lug nut at 5 oclock? The first thing when I looked at those were "those look like re-treads"

You can tell From the sidewall of the tire that they are genuine retreads. You can see the left overs from the melting process. When the treads on recaps rip off, they can cause major damage to whatever vehicle you have them on.

Retread, but the shiny stuff is nice and the letters sure are white.

My vote is definatly retreads.......if you're interested in a fun little game, just drive behind your buddy on the freeway and dodge the chunks of tread he'll throw at 75mph
