Okay, so here's the deal....
I bought (5) brand new GBC Mongrels for my XP. (28x10x14) The very first time I ran them, I ran 6 psi and pinched a hole in the sidewall.
I had 5 flats in (3) tires that night.
The tires are literally in perfect shape tread wise and the sidewall holes were vulcanized by Tech Tire International.
I wanted 30" tires that were more aggressive since I had purchased control arms that had a 1.5" forward movement.
The tires are completely useable, I just wanted bigger tires. They were 27" pumped up.
I'll sell all (5) tires for 400, I will not ship. Tires new are approx $150.00 each.
This is a stock photo of the tire...

Second set of tires.
I purchased (5) brand new Motoclaw 30x10x14 tires. I again ran 6psi in them and pinched the tire on (2) of them. Again, on the first ride out, I had a problem.
One was vulcanized patched from the inside, the other is ruined on the inside because it was driven flat to get back. The tire that is ruined could technically be used if you wanted to put a tube in it. (which is what I was going to do because it was a fifth tire being used as a spare)
I have to sell these because I purchased a set of Hiper wheels with a (5+2) spacing and though the Motoclaws fit, the "fingers" on the sidewall is too thick and the tires hit my shocks. If I were to use a set of normal spacing (4+3) tires, they wouldn't hit.
The tires were used for a day and a half. Again, though the one has a patch, they were repaired correctly and I wouldn't hesitate to use either one of these tires.
These tires new are almost $200 bucks each. I will sell all (5) for $550. Again, I will not ship.
Here is a stock pic of the tires.

Anyone that knows me knows I'm up front and will tell you straight up. I don't need the money bad enough to sell something I wouldn't use myself.
I had to switch to Bighorn 30" tires because they don't have the "fingers" on the sidewalls and therefore don't rub my shocks.
I will be more than happy to take pics of the tires including the patches that have been repaired.
If you have any questions, feel free to ask.
If you're contemplating upgrading to 14" tires, I will sell my 14" black Hipers (they are (5+2) spacing) and are double bead locked. There is nothing wrong with them but they do have the normal road rash associated with riding in the mountains. If you want a perfect set, there's a dealer near you.
I will sell all (5) wheels for $950.00 If you were to buy (5) new Hipers, you'd pay roughly 1600 to 1800 bucks.
Again, I will not ship these.
Thanks,
Mark
