The tires are still on my car, after seeing a few low ***** i'm contemplating keeping them -it all depends on what offer I get. They have 1month of usage with ATLEAST a good 98% tread still left on them, no abnormal camber/toe wear, no misusage (been driving like a baby during break-in).

how can you tell that they have no abormal wear anywhere if the tires are still on your car? these tires wear much faster on the inside sidewall and its not exactly visible with the tires still on. what is the highest offer you've gotten so far? pics might help the credibility and not getting too much lowballing going on. With these tires its very difficult to trust someone's idea of 1300 miles without pics because they wear so much faster than many other tires. 1300 miles=average of 92-94% tread left based on an average of 20k miles per set of tires which many people dont even make it to so you must drive really lightly if theres still more than 98% tread left. Anyways I'm interested once I see some pictures. Placing a penny in the tread in the pics too gives a good idea how much tread is left for viewers
thanks

I tried doing the penny trick thing in pictures of my tires, but unless you have a really good camera with perfect lighting it wont show up well.. its really hard to judge tread off pictures... I took like 30 pics to find 5 i could use.

Reason I say what I said because I took a look at the tires from under the car. Its a very vague explanation I agree and I will try to get a couple of shots of the tires as soon as I can. Thanks!
ps. believe me when I say I tread lightly. I have yet toeven take a hard turn and really test this car as I am just finishing up break-in (although many can argue there is no need I decided to for my own piece of mind).

by the way what are you looking to get for these. i know you said you got lowballed a few times so what is your idea of a fair price? with winter coming up it sucks cuz i'll have to buy them and not put them on my car till spring but I'd like to have a set so when that warm weather comes I can be ready to rock thanks

Hi guys sorry for the hold up, ill have pics up by 2pm AZ time (-7GMT), note the pics will be with the tires on the car as it's my daily driver. I am looking to get $600 shipped; if I don't get what I'm looking for I'll just keep them, (no real rush for a sale).
