I am glad FAS has a line on these.
After getting so many offers to buy them off my van, I split the set up and sold each individually to help out a few more vans.

Hot Dog.... my tire was found at a Pizza Place about 1/2 mile from the shop. Sheriff found my tire plus the others that were stolen at the trash cans of the pizza place. Not sure what and how they got there.... Maybe some kids used them as chairs. You got me but my tire was found. How cool is that!

Wow, that's really cool! You are a lucky man. Wink

Agreed.... I am. Can only imagine local kids playing tricks or homeless needed tires for ?? The shop is on a steep hill so maybe they were rolling tires down it and let them go. Who knows but I have it back. Yeah! TJ

I've always wondered about losing a spare on a syncro. Say the tires are worn and you now need to replace the stolen one with a new tire. Would that not mess with your VC if the tread depths are a few mm off? So then all of a sudden you're in need of 5 new tires?
