Default Anyone want to buy my stock tires?

I know the stock Michelin rubbers suck ***, its like driving on wax. But maybe one of you might want them to burn up on a track? I want to get somethign better and have no place to keep these. They have less than 10K miles on them, so they are still in nice shape. PM me if you are interested so I can get an idea of what I can get for them, and if I can get rid of them before I get new rubber.

These are from the 18" anniversary wheels btw, you can look the size specs online for now, I'll post them later though.

Well they have about 10K miles on them to give you an idea, and I've never been to the track or gotten too crazy, so they are still in nice shape.. I'll post pics tonight for you though.

PM me an offer for what you might be willing to pay. I want to get nice rubber all around, but since I dont have a place to keep the old ones, I figure I'll ditch them at a good price and help reduce my costs.

Ok, here's an update. I looked on tirerack.com and these tires are like, $200 and $250 each for front and rear respectively. I now am under the impression that perhaps its just been too cold for these to get soft and stick like they should, so I'll have to just tough it out for a while. But these are NOT the same tires as on regular Z's, I assume they must have upgraded for the anniversary edition. So, in light of this new found information, I won't be selling. Sorry guys!
