goodyear 37x12.5x15 is this a deal?

practically new tires

goodyear wrangler mtr 37x12.5x15
5 tires for 1000

I'd be stepping up from a 35" tire.

Thoughts?

Sounds Fair.

They'll be the old tread design, so they're probably fairly old (at least 5 years IIRC, maybe 10-12).

Jeep guys love them because they stopped making the 37's in a 15" wheel. I had a set on my Blazer and was super happy with them.

I'd rather buy some new 35s than old 37s, especially if the truck is already set up for 35s.

That's the only thing I was worried about... Was the age. And a little on the tire/fender spacing

last 4 of the dot series of #'s is the date code.

ex: 2005 = 20th week of 2005

ex: 1211 = 12th week of 2011

the old old stuff is 3 #'s

ex: 128 = 12th week of 1998

ex: 519 = 51st week of 1999

so keep this in mind.

They are from 2005/2006. Supposedly they have been stored indoors. Anyway here are a few pictures. The first picture really turned me off, it looks like the corners have significant amount of wear. That coupled w/ the age and the size 15" is making me think twice. Really wanted to move up to a 17" rim. My rear axle isn't exactly centered. Pretty sure I've just talked myself out of buying these

They look like they're down to 50% in some spots? I'd offer $700 and wouldn't pay more than $800. Much more and you're getting into new tire range.

I'd buy them for 7-800. New I just got 4 for that price. If all five are decent with no rot I'd offer that for them.
