koolaidman LOL....You should know its either a SC430 or a 06 GS430
Let me know man, if you need a runflat or non runflat...I might have a used one or 2 or possibly a new one if you want.

anything within like $80 bucks. i would prefer to pickup a used normal tire (not runflat) with like 50% or more tread left so i can minimize cost...these are just my winter set. thanks again
