    Anyone need some wheel boxes? When I bought some stock wheels from someone they came in these Rota boxes. They are yours for the taking. Come to by BBQ this Saturday and pick them up.

    Added: very used RE070 tires .... see post #11

    If you don't take them, I definitely will. I've got bare rims sitting in my loft on a carpet.

    Ray is right. Only rims fit in the boxes.... well I guess if the wheel was small enough it might work.

    Ray it is called cleaning out the garage. I stared on cleaning early this morning and just finished. Moved everything out and then shop vac'ed and power washed the floor.

    Ok so she decided she did not want the boxes so I still have 4 wheel boxes....

    Got my Kooks on now so I also have 4 very well worn RE070 tires. They are to the wear indicators and one has a flapper and a plug in it. Someone need some backup tires or some tires to beat on or a couple of tires to make a set? They are yours for free.

    LMAO.... yes WE did (Zak, Shane and myself) :biggthumpup: but it was only one event right (yes, yes, equivalent to like 3 or 4 seat time wise I know)

    Well the one tire I would not have driven on if I had know about the flapper on it. Other than that I think they are fine but if someone was in a pinch that one holds air just fine without leaking. I think someone trying to make a cheap used set would want these.

    The three will for sure... you could run the fourth but that chunk has me worried. If you found someone with one more tire to get rid of would be set. BUT I am the first to admit I know nothing about tires so someone with some knowledge might tell you you would be fine running it. I don't really know for sure. I am the cautious type.


    I just hated to throw these away knowing someone could use/abuse them. If no one ends up wanting them I send them to the tire shredders.

    Bump... recycling is Tuesday so if no one wants the boxes by Monday evening they are gone to the recyclers.

    I am not going to keep the tires for ever either. If someone wants them better speak up soon.
