Default Need new tires for my BBS SX's...

I just took a look at my summer wheels and am going to need a new set of tires on them. 18X225X45's... was wondering if anyone had a used set in those size that I could pick up, or if theres any sales going on right now. I paid around 700 for my Kuhmo's and really was not pleased with the tire, especially the tread life.

Default I think you should probably just get new wheels...

Nice wheels. My fav as you can see.

Default Oh back in the day I ran Bridgestone S03's which were a good tire then...

Also ran crappy Yokohama Parada's which were the worst tire I ever had...

Default i have a set of 235/40/18

3 Pirelli P Zero Nero and 1 Continental Contisport 2.

2 tires have ~5/32 and two have more than 7-8/32 tread left. one pirelli has a plug but no big issue. one pirelli is slightly noisy between 65-85.

$200+ship.

I can also throw in a 235/40/18 Dunlop Sp01 w/ 7-8/32 and a plug in it, all together for $260+ship.

helluva deal if you ask me.
