skymama 37 #1 September 18, 2007 My ex found 4, brand new tires with rims in his construction dumpster at work. The police told him to sell them if he wants to. I told him to try Craig's List, but is there an automotive site out there that would be better? Is there a website where he can go to, to figure out what kind of car they are for by looking at serial numbers? All he knows now is that they are for a Dodge.She is Da Man, and you better not mess with Da Man, because she will lay some keepdown on you faster than, well, really fast. ~Billvon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

normiss 798 #4 September 18, 2007 tires for a specific manufacturer???? never heard of such a thing! (for the most part anyway....) no pawn shops in Sanford??? as far as finding a web site...it depends on the tire size, there are some specific car type sites out there...collector, hot rod, race cars, trucks, etc...if the tires are the size that those type vehicles use, then list them there.. or save them for Alix, she'll burn off a new set rather quickly...and cops don't want evidence, their job is to fill out forms and arrest people.

CSpenceFLY 1 #5 September 18, 2007 I would think someone might report their wheels and tires stolen. I would think they might want them back. Cops," Oh,we found them but we told the guy that found them to sell them". Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
normiss 798 #6 September 18, 2007 unless the two seperate reports...one stolen, one found...were to ever cross within the police system...it's finders keepers. there's a reason we call it the "criminal" justice system you know... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

All he knows now is that they are for a Dodge. ahhhh this is why I had my little incident a few weeks back. COPS CAN SUCK MY FUCKING BALLS!!!!!!!! I knew I'd never see my rims/tires again when it happened and so I did what I did to at least try and stop it. Those are evidence, and a GOOD cop would do a check for any dodge vehicles reporting stolen rims. GD that pisses me off to no end. Anyway, sorry for the rant. Ebay is your friend, just make sure you get the price on shipping worked out so you know what to charge. You might find a dodge enthusiast site that allows stuff to be sold on it, kind of like dz.com. I wonder what the actual chief of police would say to an officer telling you to sell possibly stolen property. Possession is 9/10ths you know. copsSkymama's #2 stalker - Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jtval 0 #15 September 18, 2007 Quote I can't believe the cops would not want them as evidence. Cops are too busy to deal with evidence. When My car was stolen they told me "we dont look for stolen cars if it turns up we'll contact you." Apparently, in Las Vegas they don't have to do the full aspect of the job. I figured they would have some unit that worked stolen cars. Nope.My photos My Videos Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

critrgitr 0 #17 September 18, 2007 You would probably sell them fast if you post the info on a Dodge specific web forum. I sold my wheels and tires in one day on one of the forums below. A guy offered me $800 + shipping. Here are a three Dodge specific forums: Turbo Diesel Register (largest dodge forum), Diesel Truck Resource (my favorite), and NW Bombers is an excellent Pacific Northwest web site.

ryoder 1,590 #18 September 18, 2007 Put them on Craig's list with the make/model/size clearly listed. It is the buyers responsibility to know if they fit, not the sellers. Tires are not designed for specific vehicles; The same tires can be used on various makes/models regardless if they were OEM. And the reason I say to use Craig's list is because you need to find a LOCAL buyer. The cost of shipping large heavy items like tires makes it financially impractical to ship them. I sold the OEM rims/tires off my 2006 Jeep on Craig's List."There are only three things of value: younger women, faster airplanes, and bigger crocodiles" - Arthur Jones.

Muenkel 0 #21 September 18, 2007 Andrea, I have sold several sets of tires with rims on ebay successfully. If you want to find out their value quickly,, I would suggest contacting The Tire Rack (sorry, I don't have the 800 number available, but they do have a website). When posting on ebay, put the tire size and the fact that they are brand new with rims in the heading line. After you have chosen the sale price, make sure you put in that the buyer is responsible for shipping costs. Get a quote from UPS. They're easy to ship. Take good pictures of the tread on the tires. Zoom in so it is obvious how much tread is left. You'll be surprised how quickly they will sell provided they're priced well. Good luck. _________________________________________ Chris Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
freefallfreak 0 #22 September 18, 2007 Andrea, I own a 2006 Dodge Charger R/T. Let me know what size the tires are, what brand and what you want for them. If they fit, I'd like a shot at them.
