Loud Pedal Posted July 1, 2006 Share Posted July 1, 2006 I have a set of factory C5 tires that still have quite a bit of tread on them. I took them off at about 10k miles to go up in rim size. They still have a good 10k left on them if you're not a lead foot like me. Make me an offer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Togo Posted July 1, 2006 Share Posted July 1, 2006 are they run flats? what are you looking to get out of them?ideally i'd like an extra set (especially run flats) for long cruises out of town - heck, i have only turned my traction control off when i was at the drag strip last - so they should last me quite some time!what size are they please?

She even knew what it stood for perhaps, but i never had them on my car - and my 92 didn't come with them i also never thought i'd need to know what they were, as i heard they are CRAP so i steered clear - and on my car now - i have D/Rs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loud Pedal Posted July 6, 2006 Author Share Posted July 6, 2006 Togo, if you want these tires, I'll sell em to ya for $150. I'd like to get em outta here to make room. 3 of them are still on the rims and we have to pop them off ( no the rims aren't for sale ). Do you have a set to mount them on? I saw there's a set of chromies on this forum.Lemme know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How much effect on speedometer and transmission?The difference between the diameter of the front and rears has to be right or you'll piss off traction control. I don't know all the compatible numbers but I'm sure there's at least one over-achiever here who does. Maybe they'll speak up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I don't hear from him, they're yours.i too have Z06 wheels and tires - so i'm gonna pass - i think the reason i wanted them initially is i was looking for some coupe size wheels and those tires would have fit well!techman - have at 'em!
