Fair trade?

There is a guy willing to trade me 5 31-10.5-15 Super Swamper TSL's for my waverunner. 4 of the tires are at 60% and one is at 100%.

Question, and you all are going to get mad: would they even fit on my Ranger?

Oh yeah, forgot to mention that.

1990 Ski Doo Bombardier 1200CC. Brand new battery. Bought it a couple of years ago for $900. I am only asking $800. I have never ridden it.

Did you buy it just for fun. I have a couple newer jetskis and i love to ride them. Well if you dont ride it what do you have to lose. I wouldnt take my word for it but i think 31s will fit. What size tires are in that picture. Or you could do it the old way and crawl under your truck and messure all your spacing.

The tires on it now are 235/75/15's.

And I also forgot to mention that the guy is only asking $500 for the tires, so.....with 60 % tread on a super swamper, that will last me what...5 miles?

yeah, dont do it. If you can sell the jetski for 800, you can probably buy the tires new for that

Ski doo's are snowmobiles... It's a Sea Doo. Sorry for being a pain in the A$$.

I say hold off. You may really want to but it's really not worth it.

I wouldnt do it. 60% tread left on swampers isnt going to last long.
