Default Baja MTZ's

A friend took these off a used truck he bought. Are they worth anything? There's not much tread left.. I can measure it if the pictures don't help.. They're Mickey Thompson baja MTZ LT265/75R16 M+S. Thanks in advance!

Just measure the depth and find the tires original specs. By the pictures, they look fairly worn.

Yeah, I've got the same set on my JK and mine have more tread than those....and I'm ready to replace them. Once the tread gets so worn, it's just not going to perform on the rocks, mud etc. They might give you a few thousand miles but they're toast in my opinion.

Look worthless to me, not worth mounting.

Also they are 16's, do you have some 16 inch wheels for your JK ??

Thanks for the input everyone. I will try to get a measurement on the tread this weekend but I'm pretty sure they're toast..

I'm still running my stock wheels and tires. Thought if I come across some 16's or buy some cheap ones they would make a nice set..

I would run them for a short period of time, but I sure wouldn't pay a whole lot for them. Around here they sell tires with less rubber for $150+ but nobody bites.
