Took my $700 more-door up the street to the Circle K today. Ran surprisingly well for having not been on the road for 15 years. Didn't have my camera or my phone on me at the time, but here's a pic of it in my back yard right after I got home.

Before you all remind me, I know it's in poor condition. Budget is always the limiting factor.

As do I, Nitro.

The rears are matching 215/70's, brand new. LF is a 215/75 (I think) and RF I'm not quite sure about. Some random snow or dirt tire from the looks of it. I have 5 rally wheels the same as the left front, varying colors of course, plus the wheel that the RF is on, all 14".
