I put a WTB in the parts sale/wanted froum...

Looking for any serious competitiors who have used tires from this past season. I used an old set of 710s this past summer, not bad considering they had a season of use already by a Nationals competitor.

I'm on a tight budget, so I'm not too picky as long as they have some life left for next season.

Thanks.

 

I might...I've got 2 sets of used V710's (I think each has about 40-50 runs)...have to discuss next year's tire plan with the co-driver first, but email me at bhertwec "at" highpoint "dot" edu

doesn't Jason get rid of his tires after 12 runs or the molding release has been worn off, whichever comes first? must be nice...

 

Not me I am a cheap bastard... I go to 100 runs then send them down the road.

The tires on our car right now were the 2005 natls tires.

 

I know, I was just poking fun at you

I would have no problem buying 50-60 run tires for local events, if I was just interested in trying DOT R's. The Kumhos are amazing tires, my last set on the Z06 I was just as fast (on excellent concrete) at 100 runs as I was at 50 runs, based on consistent benchmarks.

 

I've got a set of 40-50 run tires leftover from buying imp's car. 245 V710s from early this season. Located in Dallas, but I'll ship for the right price. Email me at iain <at> s2000 <dot> org.

 

Do you have a spare set of wheels as well? I'd be interested in "renting" the wheels and paying you for the tires to just experiment next season a bit but I don't have a spare set of wheels to mount them right now.

 

No spare wheels, but if you check the classifieds used sets seem to turn up pretty regularly for $300-400.

 

I have the following

4 245/45/17 V710 (I just wore off the treads, 40 runs on them)
2 255/40/17 RA-1s (50% worn)
2 235/45/17 RA-1 (70% worn)
1 235/45/17 RA-1 Just turned into slick
1 235/40/17 RA-1 Just turned into slick

The V710 you can have for free if you pay for mounting on my new tires
the 255 you can have for $120
the okay 235 you can have for $75
the other slick ones you can have for free.

I am in CT. $150 if you want the 255 and 235

 

RA's are great tires and the 235/40 gives you a great final drive reduction,helping that out of the hole jump we need. I have approx 800 track miles on mine and they look hardly used. olddragger

 

Then it's got to be those auto-x's that where my tires out.

 

sorry man, we threw the last set away because they were worn so bad, current DOT-R inventory is zero
