WTB: Used 225/50-16

Post by dscherpf »

Looking for a used set of star specs or R-S3s in 225/50-16. Would prefer that they still have some life in them but essentially I'm just looking for something that I can use for the rest of the season.

Have a set of Star-Specs for you of that size from my FD. I was thinking about stepping up to a bigger wheel/tire combo for that car anyway. They should definitely last through the end of the season. I'll try and get some pics of them so you can see tread depth.

Here's some pics, they aren't at the wear-bars yet, but getting close. Only one corner of the tire is worn (due to stock camber). I was going to flip them on the rims and use them for another season, but have been having too much fun with the Spec7.

Looks like those are just getting good. Depending on how heavy the car is they will still last a while. Caitlin's mini takes forever to go through tires compared to the big heavy STI...

Man, I forgot to check this thread last week. Looks like I can't send PMs yet. What would you be looking to get for them?

Dunno, wasn't planning to sell them but money is money. $200?

A mod can close this if they want, got a set of star specs. They made a huge difference!
