Anyone get a set of Mickey Thompson tires covered in a silver graphite like paste? Almost like anti sieze. All around the bead and coating the insides. Never received a set of tires like this before, and I've gotten these tires multiple times over the years.

It's from a big company. Supposed to be brand new. I'm very unhappy.

I have a set of 315/50-17 MT Street R’s, maybe 10-15 passes on them. Pretty much like new except they are a few years old but stored sealed in garbage bags in 72F garage. They are on Race Star Recluse Rims. I’d sell them cheap, $500 for the set of 2, both rims and tires, mounted, balanced, ready to go.

That's an insane deal, have more than that just into the tires. Unfortunately I'm stuck waiting for an RMA with these...

Open to anyone who wants them.

I just spent 3 1/2 days last week and about 15k in parts to replace the entire drive train in my cat, clutch to a new 9310 2.66 close ratio Tranzilla transmission, sent the Wiles driveshaft in for refurb, new 3.90 SRT Diff, and new RE axles. Took it out on Thanksgiving day around noon for a test ride, no WOT as I want to break the Diff in a bit before such but totally smooth to 110 and it’s staying this way, no more 1/4 track for this cat, I can’t afford to do this again, time or money wise. I’d still sell the car if I got a decent offer for it, it’s unbelievably clean inside and out and underneath even for a car that almost 10 years old now. You can eat off the underneath and the rest of the car is the same.
