Anyone else win tires on GL today?

[patracy]

Yes, you can reuse the run flat or beadlock inside and use on 5 ton combat 2 piece wheels, fmtv, or hemett rims. The 395's will work on a 5 ton with no problem.

I have offered to buy the tires if he doesn't want to go into the default mode.

 

[juanprado]

Are you talking about split rims? Like on the M923a1?

Yes, any of the 2 piece 5 ton combat rims will work. I think there are 2 styles with a minor difference of the stud size that holds them together.

M925, where are the tires at?

 

[gimpyrobb]

creekside

These MRAP tires seem to be selling for a lot less on ebay, than they went for in the latest GL auction.

If they really can replace my -A2 tires with these, I may stock up on a set of six.

The 395/85r20 work well as super singles on m939a1 and a2's.

Most are recent manufacture

How tall (in inches) are the 395s?

 

[Coffey1]

I think 46 inches if I remember right.

 

[patracy]

46.5"

Anybody have an invoice transferred to their name lately at GL. I'm trying to buy these and I guess we need a manager.
Both buyer and seller feel the best and easiest way to work this is if I pay GL direct but the gal at GL never heard of doing this so I thought I would ask if anyone else has done it. I recall someone may have done it about 18 months ago or so but now am second guessing?
He would rather I pay GL because he is not on paypal, which is all good and all, but we need a fast and east transaction and I want it on my CC.

I have been a GL customer for the last 13 years or so and have not defaulted. But I am wondering, what happens to people who do default?

 

[M925]

20% penalty.....

 

[porkysplace]

20% penalty.....

They most likely will lock your account also , they have done it in the past.

 

[M925]

Not as long as you pay...at least that has been my experience.

 

[3dAngus]

Hopefully, none of that is going to happen. We just need to get with the right person.

 

[wreckerman893]

GL does not allow anyone to pay for the goods except the person on the account. I had an issue with that one time when I bought some stuff for a customer and he wanted to pay for it himself. This may be to thwart someone with a locked account to use a straw buyer account to continue to buy stuff. If you trust the person that bought the stuff you want you can deposit money in his account and he can do a funds transfer instead of a credit card payment.

 

[M925]

I could pay for it......but I won tires that I thought I could use...which I may be able to use. I think when I saw that the government paid 4,000 each for them, and that they were new, I made some impluse bids.

I got 8 of them for $1,594.84 fees and tax included....if someone wants them they could wire me the money and I'd authorize them for pick up. But if I have to go pick them up...I'd have to sell them for 2.5 times my cost.

But do I really want to drive to OH and back with a Ford Ranger trailer and 2,500 pounds of tires? I looked dumb enough with 9 pallets of sleeping bags on my Ranger and trailer coming back from OH....I will figure something out. I reckon I could sell my Goodyear's and the MRAP rims. $#($*& Yeah me. ? it all shakes out in the end.

At least someone offered me a high mileage late model SUV and $3,500 for my truck today. LOL.

The good idea fairy strikes again....

 

[M925]

Hopefully, none of that is going to happen. We just need to get with the right person.

Hopefully we can work something out 3dangus.

 

[3dAngus]

I have the cash or the credit card. Just need to get those answers from GL.
I'm still standing by...

I'm going to try to buy some other junk next week at that location so I wish they would hurry up and answer the questions so I can plan on making the bids and pickups together.

Always good to consolidate those long distance trips with the high costs of fuel and all.
