None

Item Interest

Prefer more winter friendly tires, but want to know how much I could get for my stock tires first. Car has 6K+ miles, and measured the shortest tread depth, which is at the inside of the tires due to the stock negative camber. Have never spun the tires, and I live in the flat desert, so I'm sure I'd get 20K miles out of my tires if I was to keep them.

Fronts have 7/32" of tread depth left, and rears 6/32" (new are supposedly 8/32", but never measure them). Again, this is on the inner grooves. The outer ones have 0.5/32" more. Only issue that just happened was a nail on the left rear tire (my first), so you know. I plugged it, but will permanently fix it when tire is removed.

Please let me know how much I could realistically get for them. If what I can get is reasonable (excluding shipping), I could order new tires right away and have them ready in less than a week. They're located in zip 79932 in TX. Thanks gang.

Guess I didn't make myself understood. I didn't intend for this thread to be an auction. Just wanted to hear from folks familiar with the used PS2 tire market how much I could realistically get for my set to decide if I sell them or not. For $250 I'd definitely keep them

. But thanks for the 'bump'

.

Oh, and the tires I wanted (DWSs) are backordered until the end of days, so it'd take a lot longer than a week to ship them (at least a month).

id go about 450 for the tires.

I was hoping to hear from people who bought a similar set, and not looking to buy, to get an unbiased opinion on value

. I'm not looking to get 75% of the price because they have at least 75% tread left (fronts have more), especially with a patched tire, but not 25% either. But thanks anyway.

I just bought 2 rears that are at 8/32nds for $285. Hope that helps.

$600 - $700 for the set would be fair I think. The patched tire is a factor though IMO.

That's pretty much what I was thinking. Not quite enough to cover new tires, but fair because of the patched tire. Unfortunately flats and rock chips are a fact of life in cars, but a properly patched hole has no effect on the tire... plus car as TPMS. Anyway, I'll ask $700 for the set when I get the backordered DWSs, and go from there. Thanks to all for your help. Have a great day.

EDIT: Just got word that DWSs are nationally backordered until May, so will have to wait until then. If anybody has a viable alternative to the DWSs (ultra-high-performance all-season tires in 255/35 and 275/35), please shoot. Thx.
