FS: BridgeStone Potenza 215/45/ZR17 Tires

[Euro838]

Hi all,

I am selling 4 Bridgestone Potenza RE040 tires. The size is 215/45/ZR17. They are Z-rated tires. There is about %65-%70 tread left, grooves are still quite deep. If you call or check around, one tire is over $300 each! I am asking $500 for all 4 of them. I am selling them because I want all seasons and these are ultra high performance summers. I don't drive my car that hard so I want to get tires I can drive year round. Please click on the following link to view pictures.

Hi all,

Just wondering if anyone could provide me some feedback on my post. Am I asking too much for these tires? Is this is a unique or weird tire size that no one uses? Nobody likes these tires? Is it just a slow part of the year? High performance tires are not in demand because of the latest snow we just had? Thanks.

I think your asking to much for these tires especially since they only have 60-70% tread. Just some feedback.

[Euro838]

Thanks for the feedback!

$400? anyone? The %60-%70 is only an estimate, they have been been drivin about 10 000 Kms. Lots of good tread on them still.

i will give you $250cash CDN
if you want... other then that i cant do any better

only 60% tread man... be reasonable

Like I said, those figures are only estimates, I am by far no tire expert. Especially since these are specialty tires. The only solid figure that I know of is they have been driven 10 000 kms. I called around locally and they are over $300 each to replace for tires alone. I think the lowest I am willing to go is $360 for the set, ($10 to remove them from my rims) otherwise I will just them for this season and then get a new set next year. Thanks.

You can buy a cheap little tire measuring guage that shows the depth of the tread.

[Euro838]

Does the measure take into account the tire wear index? From what I have read, not all tires have the same tread wear. I heard the higher the performance, the lower the tread wear. Anyways, I'll check it out and see if I can post it. Or if anyone is really interested, they can drop by and take a look at the tires themselves, I'm not using them right now, just sitting in my garage. Thanks.
