Looking to step up on size of my rears and move my just about new "NO" PS4S
Looking to see if there are any local takers first.
As you already know these go for ~$420 ea.
Tires are practically brand new DOT is 22
I only have 5,600 miles on my GTS, and not in the market for new tires, so please take this as "friendly" advice from a fellow 718 owner. I happened to be on Tire Rack shopping prices for new tires for our X5. I never buy from them, as our local independent (Radial Tire Company in Maryland) offers equal or better pricing for PCA nd BMWCCA members that includes mounting/balancing along with free rotation, flat fixing etc, for the life of the tires. So for me - and perhaps most Porsche owners - buying used tires, even with only 1k miles, and going through the hassle of picking them up, finding a quality shop to mount and balance them, and possibly not have the manufacturer road hazard warranty, would only make sense if the savings vs. brand new were significant.
I certainly don't fault you for asking $375 each vs. Tire Rack's $420, and hope you are successful in finding a local buyer who may have just encountered a spike strip. But if you put yourself in a prospective buyers shoes, would you really go through all of the hassle of buying a used tire to save 10%?
Again, not in the market myself and not negotiating, and hope you are able to effect a reasonable sale. FWIW, I still have a new, in the box very high quality basketball post and backboard that I decided not to install 12 years ago that I could have sold to a neighbor for 50% of the $1,400 I paid for it, but I thought that was too much of a discount. So shame on me. I'd be happy to swap for your tires?
