Anyone have some old 205/50/15s lying around? I just need 2 on the back to hold me over until the fronts are done.

What do you need them for? I have a handful of Star Specs here. The only thing I can say about em is 'not corded' though.

I've got 10 year ol Hoosiers that fit the same description. Free, but you have to dismount them or use them on 5x100 wheels.

Mainly for highway driving, but I plan to do a couple local events as well. I did just order a new set of rivals, but I'd like to get maybe 3-5k more miles out of the front set of my Kumho XS without worrying about the backs exploding.

If the star specs have any tread at all and aren't splitting open near the corners, they are in better condition than my rears and I will have them.

Hoosiers, no thanks.

They should be fine for that. I have 2 that are not on a wheel that are pretty much right at the wear bars. I have 3 that are mounted to wheels that are a 2/32 or 3/32 off the wear bars and one that is corded. (Rotate your tires at CMP)

You can have the 2 unmounted ones for a 6 pack or one of the mounted ones for a 6 pack + dismounting. I don't have a pressing need for the wheels so I can give them to you on the wheels and you can get the wheels back whenever.

we have those legacy tires, but they are off road centered tires really.
