Sounds like a bad deal IMO. Although there's still 60% left, that's about the time where the tires use starts to degrade a lot. Less grip, less depth, just less effective overall.

I paid 650 for my 35 MTZs brand new, they were blems, and at half tread I got rid of them. Great tires when new but at half tread not so much. I'd pay about half that for them at the most.

I scored a set of 30" bfg w/90% tread on them on rims for $400, had to drive a hundred miles but well worth it IMO.

Paid $1150 for a set of brand new 35x12.5x15 Pro Comp Mud Terrain and 15x8 Pro Comp D Window black steelies with caps including mounting, balancing, and shipping. 4 wheel parts price matches anything and they have a special on Pro Comp right now.
