Default WOW What a deal!

Just found 4 srt-10 OEM rims WITH tires (2 new and 2 need to be replaced soon) that are in good condition for $600 bucks in my area. I'm waiting for the guy to get back to me hopefully they arn't sold yet. I'll let you guys know how it goes.

Ok so i got the rims. These things are in amazing condition. For 3 years old there is light scratching and very faint curb rashing on some but on a scale of 1-10 i'd give them an 8. Definetly an amazing buy for $600. Now, here is the question. These rims have tires mounted on them which are 275/45's Avon Tech ST. 2 of the tires are bald and need replaced and 2 of them are about 50-60% tread left. He also gave me 2 unmounted Avon Tech ST 305/45's with about 70-80% tread left. My ambitions with this truck is to drop the read 2'' with ground force shackles. Now, i'm either gunna have to buy 2-275/45's or 2-305/45's.... What am i better going off with??? Will the 305/45's even fit up front? or do i have to level the front and bring it up 2"??? Anyone with any input lmk cause i'm in the process of buying the tires so i can have these rims ready for the summer.

Thanks,
Hontz

Guy had like an 07 or 08 big horn quad cab with a lot of chit done to it. He had put these huge wide a** tires on his truck and no longer needed these. These arn't stolen, he just had a lot of money to play with. Awesome guy too, he part of like every dodge forum except this lol. Tried convincing him to cross over from *********.com but it wasn't happening lol. All in all i got some sick *** tires and found yet another dodge truck fanatic to talk to around my area.
