Red face Need some tires badly !

I was getting onto 408 through research park today, during the rain storm. And sure enough i fish tailed and eventually hydroplaned onto the grass medium! I really wasn't speeding, but then having two bald rear tires didn't help. Luckily nothing happened to the car or me.

So does anyone have any 16 tires that they don't need anymore? I'm eventually going to get all new Kumho's, but was waiting for my hook up to come out of MIA status. So if anyone can help me out i'd appreciate it, i'm in Orlando and am willing to drive anywhere local. I don't need brand new, just a pair real cheap, real soon. Let me know!

If you are just looking for the short term, check the local Allieds, TireKingdoms, and such. Find 2 decent used ones and offer them $40 mounted, etc. out the door. You can also call the County Sheriffs and/or OPD and see where they get their tires, that place will have some from the police cars, (they usually have to change them if they get a nail, no patching allowed). Just don't know if you will find the size you want.
