i see that you guys go through tires like a mofo.

so w/ that in mind, what size/type of tires do you look for? i imagine you are not dropping top dollar on some road race style tread. but you are using whatever you can get your hands on tht u dont give a uck if u flat spot them.

w/ that being said, i toss away a shit load of ok tires at work–nothing real nice, usually less than 1/4 tread left–i.e. good enough to pass inspection, but not nice enough to sell used. brands vary from good pirelli, michelins, and even kumho to shitty no name brands and normal coopers, bf’s, and whatever may be able to hook some of u guys up cheap to free.
