So after all that excitement and nonsense you made about finding those for such a great price, you're going to sell them now? I thought you were going to sleep with them.

Keep looking for tires. CL is going to be a great place to look for some used tires.

Alcoas are gay anyway. Yeah, the price was good for them but I still hate them. I would convert to a 4 lug axle and run a Civic wheel before i put those on my truck.

lol well on your truck it looks fine since you're not lifted, running 33s. when you put a bigger tire like a 33 on a set of alcoas it looks terrible because of how far in they sit giving them the "pizza cutter" look.
