View Full Version : Needed- Tires!
Itsablurr 10-21-2007, 08:23 PM Does anyone have a used or semi-used set of 235 or larger 17" tires?? I'm trying to squeeze the last bit of life out of my rear tires before switching to winters, but with 2 months or so left, I dont think it's gonna happen, since I noticed some small chunking on the inside with a cord or two barely visible on shoulder of the tread.
If anyone has anything I could pick up for some $$, it would be amazingly appreciated. I'd buy a fresh set, but it seems somewhat poinless to me since I'm going to be upgrading to a set of 18" wheels in the spring.
Thanks!

Arctic330i 10-21-2007, 08:53 PM yep mine are 235 I believe, Pirelli Pzero Neros. 18"

ursa, i think i spotted you this morning as you merged onto 93. Noticed the wheels and the D Force sticker in the rear driver's window. I passed by in the blue M roady.

Hmmm, i may give it a shot. Is this something you've tried?
Arctic330i 10-23-2007, 02:01 PM so you don't want mine?

That was me. I noticed your car and the wheels but I was too focused on getting a Iced Americano from Starbucks then to catch up to you. :embarrasm
Arctic330i 10-23-2007, 02:16 PM Last night a gray e46 flew up on me on 93 S coming into Boston, I got the hell over real fast lol. It had like bluish headlights, a lip spoiler, wheels.

Not me! :cool I am steel blue (mistaken for gray every parking ticket I get) and I don't have a lip spoiler. Was it on 93?
Arctic330i 10-23-2007, 06:53 PM Yeah I edited it afterwards, 93 South coming into Boston. It was dark, it could have been steel blue also, but yeah def not yours.
