Scored some tires & wheels at work the other day
Got some "NEW TO ME" wheels & tires.
The wheels had been sitting around for about 8 yrs and were going to be thrown out when one of the techs rememberd I had a vehicle that they'd fit. One of the tires was 1/64" below the minimum tread allowance for our used car standards so they replaced all 4 tires on the truck (07 1500 HD Crewcab) the tires are 245/75R16 Bridgestones A bit smaller in overall diameter thatn the original 235/80R16's so my speedo is reading about 2 1/2 m.p.h. faster than I'm actually going @ 65mph. They'll due for now while I buy the wheels and tires I really want one at a time over the winter.

I recently got rid of wheels like that...are they the "Progressive" brand?

No idea. I didn't see any markings on them other than the size cast in to them on the back side of the wheel "16X9"
