I bought a parts miata that had spun on ice and went backwards over a curb and into a pole. It had 15" ronal rims and brand new T1R tires. The tires are quite literally like new, only a couple hundred miles on them. The rims were painted black, probably rattle can, by the original owner. 2 rims are damaged. 2 appear good. 1 tire has a bad sidewall, the other 3 look good. The tires are all mounted on the rims still, and I am not going to seperate.

These tires are too narrow for me to use on my 6ULs. I had been planning on stripping the tires and selling them then picking up a couple drag slicks for the 2 good wheels. But as time goes on I am less and less motivated to do so, and now really just want everything out of the garage.

My next thought was to put them on the rear only and do a smoke show, but really these things are full tread new, so I would feel really bad about destroying them.

So... I'll sell them.
Come by with a large enough vehicle and $125 cash, and take the lot home. These are the ground rules:
You must pick them up from my house 1 exit north of Mall of GA
You must have $125 cash for them
You must take the entire lot including the broken rim with the busted sidewall tire

I make no gaurantees, what you see is what you get. You are welcome to come by and inspect them at your heart's pleasure. I have a small compressor so we can air them up or whatever.

If that's agreeable to you, call me (Foh oh foh) 819-7098

Good deal, where's the best place to pick up an extra Toyo? Most of the regular places I check out don't seem to stock them. As you may be able to tell, I've not looked for tyres for what seems a while now.

Cool could you pm me the prices for one or two? Also, if it's not too much to ask, do you do the Hankook RS2's in 225/45/15s?

Grant,
If you can do RS2 in 225/45/15 please shoot me that price as well. I don't need them quite yet, but it would be good to know.

Ben, I might see what I can do about getting these this evening. I've got a hectic day so there's a good chance nothing will come of it but maybe if things work out.

Grantri, where do you work?
