Found these, seems like a steep first bid....a little suspect...

Not suspect at all. That first bid started out as 19.99 if I am correct but some crazy guy ran it all the way up to the reserve on the first night. He swears they will go for a lot more than that. They are very very nice tires.

more than likely the bidder bid how much he is willing to pay for them....and it was apparently enough to meet the sellers reserve?

Good luck with your auction Matt. also how nice are the wheels? are they new take offs?

[Mustang Matt]

They have seen some miles and are definitely in need of some TLC. The rears are pretty dirty and the faces are scratched and worn. They were definitely present long enough to wear out the original set and maybe a second one. They are the correct E5 part number.

Well, these are mine now...as soon as I send the paypal anyway. I'm gonna have the wheels stripped, then powder coated black and use these 4 tires and wheels on my '89. I'll sell the 5 almost new Generals I have on it now.

Oh...I wasn't the "crazy guy" who ran the bid up to the reserve the first night either.

[mustangretriever]

The best part is I had a 10% coupon through paypal so I saved $80!

Eric, what kind of Generals are those on the '89?

[mustangretriever]

XP2000's with less than 1000 miles, the 5th tire (spare) is brand new. Jim said they're rare, but I'm getting the sense these are going to be a wanted item?!

[mustangretriever]

Thanks FMR! Got the tires today and they were worth the $700! Now to get the wheels stripped and powder coated.

[NoDrama43]

Eric,

congrats on the tires.

reference the wheels remember........semi flat fronts only right? :)

You outbid me by what.....2.00 ??? (crazy first bid guy here)


post up some pics when you get them done and we will get together on the generals after september 1st. I am looking at a semi-west coast ;) car I might need them for...

Eric,


You outbid me by what.....2.00 ??? (crazy first bid guy here)

Yea, I figured they'd sell for about a 1000 but decided to throw a bid out at the last minute hoping to get them!

[mustangretriever]

Well these things have been sitting in my garage since July but I finally got them mounted yesterday. The Gatorbacks look great and I think they really finish off "the look" of an SSP.
