Anyone interested in 245/40-18 Rivals?

Decided to try 275/35 Rivals on 8.5"/9.5" wheels this season, so I have my set of 245/40s for sale -- thought I'd put them up here before posting on public boards. New from TireRack there are $198 each plus shipping, so $852 for a set, shipped. How about $150 for the set of four, picked up. Pics below with tread depth marked; note two rears more worn in center, two fronts on outside edge, so would suggest swapping ends of course.

Damn, hate Mike beat me to these - exactly the tires I plan to run this season, and can't beat the price.

Enjoy, Mike!

Haven't heard back from Mike yet. I wanted to make sure he realized these were 18" 245/40s since he mentioned running them on an E36 for track duty. Not sure how well the larger diameter will fit on an E36, but perhaps it will. You're second on the list Keith if Mike backs out (or I never hear back from him :sleep2:

).

I assumed he wanted them for the 996.

Hey guys ... I picked these Rivals up from Chuck intending to use them on track this year, but plans changed and I never had them mounted.

If anyone can get some use out of them, PM me an offer. I paid $150 and they have been stored in the garage. Good condition.
