Hey,
I got 75k km on my f types my tires are done, any recommendations?


Found these locally.

 

Not sure why FB link isnt working.

Michelin pilot sport AS4

CA$1,799

Retails for over $2400 Brand new set of tires, was test fitted and did not fit the car so these are up for sale. Willing to sell separately for the right price 255/35/20 295/30/20

 

I think those are the correct size for all models except the R.
Why did they not fit?
I guess prices really are MUCH higher in Canada.
You can get Michelin A/S4 here for $1,200 and Continental Swo6 A/S for $1,050.
OTOH you did amazing to get 75K km out of a set. What were they?

 

That's asking too much for private-sale tires, even if they're unused.
MSRP on michelin.ca is $423/$513 front/rear for a total of 2x(423+513) = 1872.
I just priced out these tires on blackcircles.ca and it came out to just under $1800 CAD. That's new, from a retailer (i.e., you can return them if there is a defect, probably comes with some warranty protections, etc).

From where?
If true they got ripped off.

How does one buy tires before knowing if they'll fit the car, and then "test fit" them?
Maybe it's an aggressively lowered/stanced car that has very little tolerance for fitment variation, but still... seems like a lot less hassle to use a measuring tape than to go to all the trouble of installing/uninstalling.

I assume they mean "best offer"? I thought the price was $1799?


Anyway.
I don't like this ad.
Tread very carefully with facebook sellers.
I'd advise you to shop elsewhere lol.
