Bonneville Tires available.
« on: May 03, 2014, 08:56:25 PM »
I forget how to operate this website software.  I can't seem to get images or posts in the classified.

But I figure folk here might need tires for Speedweek:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Dunlop 7.00x18 tires - qty 2

These a treaded LSR tires.  These tires were only used 4 events, 1 on salt, 3 on dirt, and have the tits still on them on the tread, unshaven.  No cracks or dry rot, new in 2009, never on asphalt.
They are 32.4" diameter, matched circumference, and always stored inside in the dark on a tire rack.
They were on a 7100lb truck that peaked over 200mph and was timed at the 2.25 at 197+ mph.  They are VERY tractable on loose surfaces.
These are perhaps the tallest 200+ mph approved tires.

$250 each + shipping with no rims.

The matching rims are balanced custom steel MRW's for GM/Dodge 8 lugs.  $100 each.  Metal valve stems.  Checked with indicator to be true within 0.030" TIR (±0.015 or less)

Shipping is extra, actual commercial cost.  It costs us about $150 to ship to Florida from California.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Mickey Thompson Bonnevilles.  24.5x7.5-16 quantity 2.

These are smooth LSR tires. These tires were only used 2 events on dirt, and have the tits still on them on the tread.  No cracks or dry rot, new in 2009, never on asphalt.
They are 24.5" diameter, matched circumference, and always stored inside in the dark on a tire rack.
They were on a 7100lb truck that peaked over 175mph in the dirt.  

$300 each + shipping with no rims.

The matching rims are forged aluminum 1 pc heavy duty GM 8 lugs, VERY heavy duty.  $100 each.  Metal valve stems.  Checked with indicator to be true within 0.010" TIR (±0.005 or less)

Shipping is extra, actual commercial cost.  

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Mickey Thompson Bonnevilles.  30.0x9.0-18 quantity 2.

These are smooth LSR tires.  These tires were only used 4 events, 1 on salt, 3 on dirt, and have the tits still on them on the tread.  No cracks or dry rot, new in 2009, never on asphalt.
They are 30.0" diameter, matched circumference, and always stored inside in the dark on a tire rack.
They were on a 7100lb truck that peaked over 200mph and was timed at the 2.25 at 197+ mph.  They run like they are on rails on a heavy vehicle front axle.

$375 each + shipping with no rims.

The matching rims are balanced custom steel MRW's for GM/Dodge 8 lugs.  $100 each.  Metal valve stems.  Checked with indicator to be true within 0.030" TIR (±0.015 or less)

Shipping is extra, actual commercial cost.  

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I guarantee you will be very happy with these tires, (or rims) or I would just throw them in the dumpster.  I don't sell dangerous stuff.

Email qi@qinsp.com if you need any of them.

Come on, you don't want truck tires?  Imagine the looks of admiration you will get going to the grocery store in your chromed out 4x4 with a 12" lift kit on $750 tires.  Make fashion history!

PS - My middle name is Mike.  Perhaps my alter ego bought them without telling me... :?

DOH!!!  WHY IS EVERYBODY NAMED MIKE!

I apologize to Mike #1.

The 30's were claimed before your email by Tim.

Mike #2 is the 24.5's.

Mike #3 is on waiting list for 24.5's if sale falls through.

Mike #1 is on waiting list for MT 30's if sale falls through.

I'm not using last names due to privacy.

I "think" amid all the confusion, that the two 24.5" MT's are still available?
The 30/32's are sold.

Pat:

The edit function allows changes to posts for 4 hours (I think) after the post button is clicked.  We've got it set there to prevent loud-mouthed posters from trying to get a flame session started and then removing the post that got it started.

I do retain permanent control over that, though - can delete a post or the entire thread whenever I want to do so.  And for "for sale" items I've learned that I needn't be in a big hurry.  I've been asked repeatedly to keep the information up for a while in case someone wants to see, for instance, what the going price for that item was at the time of the post.

I'll make the tire thread go away now if you insist, but will otherwise wait a day or three before nuking it.

No problems.  Most sites have timed edit now. 

Sure, leave it up. 

I just didn't want people seeing the title and thinking there are tires for sale in the thread.

The 18" wheels I pretty much "gave away" with the tires since he wanted the "Casper" setup, smooth in the front, ribbed in the back, kind of like a French Tickler for diesels.

The 16's are 8 lug OEM GM Al Forgings.  Stupid strong.  But they are 8 lugs.  Perhaps you could go 4 lug on them? :D
