why buy used when new is not much more? i would never personally buy used tires... that's something i would not skimp on.
not really........you can get a set of decent tire w/ 70% trend left for less than half of the price of a set of new tires.Quote:

xcore are you talking about for bimmer? Go find a nice pair of 17s run 215/45 in front and 245 40 in rear and they are about 90 a tire. I got my 912s for 520 mounted balanced and insured tax and everything. They even did an alignment since I know the guy.

Then you can enjoy the rear end grip of 245s and be safe with new insured tires.
They also have decent amount of meat on them for pot holes and shit
Will run you a total of about 725 for a decent set of used bimmer rims from e46 with staggered 17s
yeah ,it's for my 318, but i really like the rims i have right now. they match perfect w/ the bodyQuote:

no offense man, but buying used tires is pretty retarded. if you need an explanation or convincing then i'm sorry
Always buy good used tires with atleast 80% tread left!! when I can buy a used tire that costs $300 new, for $35 mounted with 80% tread left there is no reason to buy it new unless you're so d--b!
buying used tires direct from an owner is ok.
buying used tires from people that broker used tires = no good.
yeah, guys i have been thinking back and forth about this, actually i knew a place where i can get a set of new 912 w/ mounting for 250. may be i will just go for that.
