Question Anyone (local) interested in two tires for the stock rims?

I got two 255 Falken Ziex's, with at least 80% tread life on 'em. Great tires, they're 16s, were previously mounted on my stock rims, which I sold a while back. Still have the tires, just wanna make a few bucks off 'em and get rid of them at the same time. They're only two tires, so shipping would be real cheap (or you can pick 'em up, etc). Like I said, just lookin to make a few bucks, so I'm flexible w/ price. Make an offer, and I'm sure we can come to a deal.

They're great tires, lots of tread, and are pretty much the widest you can go on stock rims. No rubbing issues or anything like that.

Thanks

R models came w/ 225s all around. I imagine that's the same for the other models, but I'm not sure. Basically, it's a nice staggard setup...keep the 225s in the front, and stick these 255s in the rear for some added grip while still using the super light OEM rims.

These are the ZE-502 ZIEX. $100 a pop new. From the website: "These ultra performance tires take driving to a whole new level. Extra wide, straight grooves, combined with twin traverse grooves provide excellent wet performance, water disbursement and help prevent hydroplaning."

Oh and I'm modifying my earlier description (since I just went out to look at the tires, to confirm they're 502's). These def. have more than 80% tread on 'em. I'd estimate about 95% left. Literally. They still have the rubber stubs on the side, and the treat grooves are still real deep. Good stuff.

I dunno...I'll tell ya the same thing I told ppl that PMed me. I don't have a set figure in mind. It's not $10, and it's not $200 I'm very negotiable, so make me an offer, and I'm sure we can come to an agreement. It's really that simple. Really
