Angry tire Emergency

I need a tire for a temporary replacement. I'm currently looking into some new 18" rims. I dont want to have to go by new tire for just a few weeks.

Now I need a tire due too Impact separation.. Thanks to that Dam road consturction on Dixie Farm..

So If any of you in Houston area happen to have a good 275/40/17 laying around let me know.

Oh Ya If any of You see a Arctic Why SS sitting on the Beltway this evening it's ME

I've got four half-used tires in my storage shed. I won't be home until late tonight, but I'll see what size they are.

Here's what I've got:

Two Kumho ECSTA 275/40/17. Not much tread left. $20 each or $30 for the pair.
Phantom Radial ZRX 275/40/17. Fair amount of tread left. Probably 50-60%. $25.
Dayton Daytona ZR 275/40/17. Tread looks good. Probably 80%. $25.

I'm not sure what they're worth new, honestly. These were tires that were on my rims when I bought them and I've since bought a set of BFG KDW's.

If you're interested, let me know.
