WTB Pair of 315/35-17 for roller chassis

[55Sedan]

I'm looking for a pair of inexpensive 315/35-17 that hold air so I can set up my chassis and roll the car in/out of the shop. I live just south of Fresno, CA so anyone nearby that I could do a local pick up would be best. My car is a lower priority than my three kids, but I want to get the chassis set up. I honestly don't know how long til the car will be road ready, so I hate to buy new tires just to let them rot on the rim before it is driveable.

Thanks!
Larry

Maybe I just appear to be too much of a cheapskate??? I prefer to be called "thrifty".... and prefer to stay married!

Hey Larry
I think the issue is that the tire size you are asking for isnt real common, so the chance of you finding a decent used one...and in your area...is not high. Possible but not real high

There are plenty of people running a 315....but not a ton...so the used market isnt real big.

My suggestion is to just buy the tires you want/need. If you keep them stored properly, they willl last a long time.

Check ls1tech or ls2.com they might have what you are looking for

Thank you for your responses. I've thought about getting new tires, since I've seen them for as low as $250/pair, but I would not want to run them if it takes me as long to finish the car as I think it will take.

I wasn't sure how common this size is. I've seen them on Cobra kits and I've heard they're stock Corvette size.

Larry check your local craigslist....do a search for "corvette wheels" or "corvette tires" and you more than likely will find a cheap deal on used tires and/or wheels too...

I didnt think about the Corvette wheels.....good point.
