I decided to remove my Continentals and replace them with winter tires. So, I've got the following 17" staggered tire set up for sale:

Continental ContiProContact (staggered setup)

Front tires are 225/45 R17 (fits rim widths 7.5" to 9")
Rear tires are 245/40 R17 (fits rim widths 8" to 9.5")

Tread depth remaining ~9/32" for all tires.

Tires were manufactured in Sept 2007 (DOT 3607 & 3707). I've had them from last November, and they've got ~4000 miles on them. Tires have never been kerbed.

Priced when new = $552 (reference: Tire Rack)
I'm asking $300 o.b.o. Local pickup (Seattle, WA) is preferred, but will deliver at buyer's cost.

Thanks for looking! Please PM if interested.

All bagged and ready to go!

Here's some additional details about this set of tires on sale (since several members have brought up good questions):

These Continentals are Grand Touring All Season Tires. They're non-runflats, so that means no tramlining issues. And they're Uniform Tire Quality Grade (UTQG) rated at 400 AA A. These tires will go a long way before needing replacements. Overall, they offer a pretty comfortable ride with low noise.

So how about it... any takers?

Bump for a great seller! I bought a set of stock tires from Rick before and they were 100% true to the descriptions.

how much shipping to sacramento,ca

[Rick Hunter]

Do you have a zipcode I can check with?

Assuming ~ zip=94203 (just plucked it out of google), shipping's about $100 through UPS.

Thanks for inquiring. I'll also send you a PM.

hello Rick,
you said deliver @ buyer's cost, how much?
I live in Vancouver, BC Canada across the border,
do you think you will visit Canada?

[Rick Hunter]

I don't visit Vancouver that often (although I should - the food's just awesome), but I'd be willing to meetup halfway (like @ Seattle Premium Outlets or Burlington). Could always do some Outlet shopping

UPS Standard shipping has it @ ~$125USD total to Vancouver. If you can find less expensive shipping, I can do it your way.

Thanks for inquiring. I'll also send you a PM.

Thanks Rick,

food is great here in Vancouver, if you bring me the tires, I buy you dinner.

its a nice idea if we can meet half way, do you think the trunk is big enough to fit all 4 tires?
the Premium Outlets you are referring to is @ exit 202, right?
if it is, I go there all the time, every month to do shopping.

[Rick Hunter]

Your trunk should fit 3 tires. You might have to put 1 (or 2) of the tires in the back seat, but I don't think there will be any issues. You just can't bring 4 of your friends to shop, that's all.

If you're still interested, lemme know. I can arrange a time to meetup @ SPO. And yes, it's exit 202.

Rick,

the problem with putting 1 or 2 tires in the back seat is customs will tax me for extra $$$

honestly, put it this way, if you can sell locally or ship out to buyers in USA please do.
I can wait and I have to find ways to avoid paying tax and duty.
thanks

Still up for sale.
