im having a hard time getting a set of wheels to roll my frame around on until i can afford wheels and tires. does anyone have any wheels i can borrow just til i get some wheels? preferably here in tx within 50 miles of conroe tx? i can give collateral if needed.

I have a set of free 15*10 "rust" mods that came with my truck. 6 Lug,tires need air daily. If you can figure out a ride from Topeka KS they can be yours FREEEEEEE.

A problem is the distance from me to u. I appreciate the offer. I have a set of 91 chevy rims to use. I've called almost every tire shop around here and they all say it's a liability. I don't see how it's just gonna be a rolling chassis til I can afford rims and tires.

I know in my area there are used tire shops, that can sell them cheap. Might check in your area.

1968CHEVYC10 · 01-07-2010, 12:17 AM

how long are you gonna need them?

1968CHEVYC10 · 01-07-2010, 12:21 AM

oh and mine are 6 lug I'm guessing that's what you need?

Hey, I work at a tire center. It would only be a liability for the company if they were the ones that bolted the tires on. Just go in and ask them to mount the tires for you and if they ask what they are going on, just tell them a chevy half ton pickup.
