I bought them from a friend who runs a mobile tire service...… of sorts! He tried to balance the Magnum 500 wheels, but I ended up taking them to another tire shop in town to have them properly balanced. 500's are centerless and must be balanced with a special adaptor, mounting them by the bolt holes. That shop wanted $190 apiece and that's what it ending up costing me along with a load of frustration. One thing, make sure the date codes are at least close to current. BFG's will read something like 44 18 ( two of mine) week 44 of 2018, i.e. Oct 29 to Nov 4 2018.Some places will sell you old tires if they can get away with it. The reason I bought new tires was mine were 13 years old and hard as rock.Hope the weather hold for the weekend, not looking so promising by the latest local forecast, damn it!Geoff.</blockquote>
