I have been looking for affordable tires for nearly 2 months. Mostly for take-offs or something barely used. I found a guy on Marketplace with some “Starfire” tires. 31x10.50r15 for $275. He said they have maybe 500 miles on them and he bought them in 2021.

I headed over today and exchanged the cash and tires. I got them in the car and noticed they were dated 0207. All of them. I went back and explained they are older than what he told me. Then he said he bought them used in 2021. I said I misunderstood him then and that I wouldn’t want to purchase them because they’re so old. He said that they’re fine and they’re good tires and he was getting a bit aggressive so I just left with the tires.

I’m pretty upset and don’t know what I can even do with them at this point. I don’t feel safe with them on and doubt anyone will even mount them. Any advice?
