Looking for 315/75-16 for a spare

[Higgin]

So I'm cheap and i dont want to buy a new tire just to use as a spare for my 80 which dosen't currently have one. I've asked around quite a few new and used tire places (and craigslist) around town but nobody has a 315/75-16 that isn't new. So thought I'd just throw it up here and see if anyone local (or maybe an hour or so from indy) has one or two worn ones laying around that they'd let go of for cheap? Dosen't need much tread, just needs to hold air and be able to get me home in case of a flat at the badlands or wherever. Also looking for an 80 series wheel to use on the spare also....same thing, dosn't need to be pretty, just needs to work and be inexpensive. Thanks!

I already have a full set on the truck.....I'm just looking for 1 (inexpensive) tire to use as a spare tire. $500 would be better spent on other things.

BTW Lee, how the regear going? Any update on when it'll be done?

I just thought you could give him a call and maybe get just one on the cheep or all of them and no rims then you have plenty of spares.

Should be done by next weekend. Basically had both axles and t-case gone through. New VC, gears, bearings, had the u-joints and DS checked and greased. I guess I needed a carrier too. AC fixed, couple other odds and ends.
