Help please!

So this is what i got just now. used tc rims and tires. I only got them for $250 and the downsides are the tires. 2 yokohamas, 1 bridgestone, and 1 falken. also, 1 tire has a nail in it and i think that tire needs to be replaced because theres a lil but of thread left. 1 tire, bridgestone, has a bump almost near the sidewall. they said they dont know what it is. do i need to replace it? is this a good buy? if i buy new tires for the two, howmuch will it cost? Thanks!

Edit: im totally noob about these stuff. if i get new tires and they get my old ones, do i get a discount?
#1 Yokohama S32A

#2 Same as above

Do they need to be replaced?

It all depends what size tires you need. I recommend going to your local tire shop and get some prices.. If you can afford it get some decent tires, makes all the difference.. If you feel shady about the tire get it replaced.. Again whats $700 in tires when you car is worth way more than that. Trust me up in Canada we pay way more for tires too..

These guys have good word of mouth, both online and a few friends of mine too...I think I'll try them when I'm due to replace my original tires in the next month or so.

It all depends on what tires you get, and its best to have all of the wheels have the same type of tire. I remember reading about the bump on the sidewall, its something about how the inside of the wall got damaged, and its possible for the tire to blow. One of my tires were like that before, I wasn't really scared about it, I just kept driving on it till I needed new tires lol.

But all in all, make sure you have the correct tire sizes for the wheels, and I would replace those other two brands, to match the two wheels that have the same tires so all of the wheels have the same tires.

Those yokohamas are $280 each. What about this http://www.discounttire.com/dtcs/fin...13948&sw=false or this http://www.discounttire.com/dtcs/fin...13948&sw=false. sadly, i emptied my bank for these wheels. haha my parents will kill me if they find out.

If I was using a 7" wide wheel I would get 205/50R17 tires. They are more accurate for the speedometer & will fit great on the 7" wheel.

I say those tires are getting to the point where they need to be replaced
