feeler: used ONCE, mich pilot sport CUPS (265/35/18) x 4

hi all. long time no see. life's been nuts to say the least. anyways -

i have FOUR (4) michelin cups, 265/35/18. i used them once at willowsprings. those who know me know i am a total newbie, which i guess is good for whoever buys these. cheapest brand new - tirerack at 323/piece. remaining tread over 5/32 on all 4, some even closer to 6/32. no punctures. sorry no pics for now (yes, very much out of character for me, just a little short for time and they're all wrapped up.)

there is a little bit of the rubbery globs and bits stuck on the tire. i guess i just didn't drive hard enough to scrub the stuff off!

doing a feeler before i take the time to take them off.

much prefer a socal pickup, if possible.

asking a very fairly priced $1000 for all 4. (no shipping and handling included in that price.)

ps - selling them because no more further plans of going to the track with my touring. a dear friend ended up leasing a brand new e60 m5 and invited me to tag along for the m school in spartanburg. so, form this point on, if i'm itching for some insane driving, i will happily go to an ///m school. costs a hair more, i torch their tires and CAR, and get an instructor, and even if i total the car, i dont have to think about it. )

THANKS!

pictures...

well here they are. shot them one tire at a time. basically, the first shot shows which tire base don car position, and also shows a good shot of the tread surface. the shots following each marked tire show the depth through 3 markers across. comments where necessary...

1. right rear












2. left rear









3. left front









4. right front









i've included 2 extra shots of the last tire -

there is a superficial strip that was trimmed off due to the fender wall in the rear originally being not rolled right after the tires and wheels were put on. the track event happened AFTER the wispy ribbon of rubber was surgically removed by the fender...





thank you.

ps - sorry - i have NOT posted pics in a LOOOOONG time, and totally forgot to resize the pics. i figure in this case i would have wanted to see BIG pics of the tires myself...
