I am going to be selling mine soon. What kind of prices were you guys asking, I have never sold or bought used tires before. The tires have 6,000 miles on them only!
Thanks,
Kyle

View Full Version : How many have sold their stock Coni's? kplaya186 10-22-2009, 02:13 PM I am going to be selling mine soon. What kind of prices were you guys asking, I have never sold or bought used tires before. The tires have 6,000 miles on them only! Thanks, Kyle umrdyldo 10-22-2009, 02:16 PM lol only 6k, that's half the tire. sloancallaway 10-22-2009, 02:35 PM lol no shit... my redline came with some dunlops I dont think they lasted me the first summer and They cant be much better then the continentals CudaJoe 10-22-2009, 02:46 PM wow 6000 miles is half the tire for you guys? I'd hate to be the guy that buys your car off of ya :lol:!!! I got 15000 miles on my car already. my tires have PLenty of life left in them. you guys rotate the tires right? 1badBlueberrySC 10-22-2009, 02:48 PM I'm at almost 10000 miles now... tires have been rotated 2 times now and have about 1/2 tread left or so. They do wear VERY quickly though... I'd say about 20k miles on the Conti's and thats about it! glhs379 10-22-2009, 02:49 PM i got about 11,000 out of mine umrdyldo 10-22-2009, 02:55 PM 15 seems pretty normal around here. Never done a burn out in my car either. blue05ss/sc 10-22-2009, 02:57 PM i might give u some money for them some one slashed my tires now im riding on steelies with snow tires and its 65 degrees out CudaJoe 10-22-2009, 03:02 PM I'm at almost 10000 miles now... tires have been rotated 2 times now and have about 1/2 tread left or so. They do wear VERY quickly though... I'd say about 20k miles on the Conti's and thats about it! agreed, I just wore down that tread thats towards the outside of the tire with like little circles with a line through it pattern. the tiny circles are about 2 inches apart wrapping around the tire one tread in. I just wore them down to that dissappearing on front and back tires. Only rotated the tires once. I dont do burn outs, thats why I said I dont think Id buy any of these guys cars, lol. I could see a good bit of effort being required to destroy these tires. 20K seems like a reasonable life span for these tires. 1badBlueberrySC 10-22-2009, 03:08 PM Oh yeah, those circles have been missing on my tires for quite sometime! :D I am just hoping I can get through winter on them... get me some new ones for next spring! FutureEcotecOwner 10-22-2009, 04:33 PM I actually believe the stock Conti's are very good tires, I mean they did get the record for FWD car on the road course. My stock Conti's up front have been pretty much bald since around 7k miles or so, but that is with burnouts, track racing and alittle going at it on the streets. I just rotated them about 200 miles ago, so hopefully it will last til next Spring. jonxxxedge1 10-22-2009, 04:37 PM there only supposed to last till about 12000 miles umrdyldo 10-22-2009, 04:37 PM I actually believe the stock Conti's are very good tires, I mean they did get the record for FWD car on the road course.

Longevity NO The have a 280 rating and I would like to have at least a 400 longevity rating on tires. Rissa 10-22-2009, 04:40 PM I got like....18k out of mine then they got nails in them. :( Joemann892 10-22-2009, 04:43 PM got my new tires mounted and balanced for 40$ because i told the shop to keep the old conti's 13.5k miles on them. i guess you could say i sold them. ericgt79 10-22-2009, 04:59 PM got my new tires mounted and balanced for 40$ because i told the shop to keep the old conti's 13.5k miles on them. i guess you could say i sold them. will t hey do that for me too even tho the metal band is sticking out? ;) Highbeamz 10-22-2009, 06:00 PM I sold my stock Conti's because I desperately needed winters or all seasons because I bought my car in January. I put on some 225-40-18 W rated Cooper Xeon Sport A/S tire (which sucked a bit in winter anyway) and decided they handled pretty well so I sold off my Conti's for 500 bones with only 75kms on them. Not 7500, not 75000, not 750. 75. Just 75. LOL. Boosted_Cobalt09 10-22-2009, 07:01 PM i told 3 with 9800 miles for 200 bucks because i had an impact break in one so i switched to re-11s. i hate continetal tires. Prouty33 10-22-2009, 08:22 PM I have over 25k, mostly highway, on mine and they have plenty of life on them still. I'll probably buy new tires for next summer but I'd have no problem putting them back on if I had to.... bri2203 10-22-2009, 10:36 PM You guys a bunch of morons.... he is asking what his stock tires are worth? Not how long should they last etc. It depends how much tread is left really. I think it would range from 150-250 with that mileage If you come up with a price and a tread amount left. Let me know I would be interested in buying them assiming your not too far away. kplaya186 10-23-2009, 07:35 AM You guys a bunch of morons.... he is asking what his stock tires are worth?

TrevMo 10-23-2009, 09:59 AM I've got a set I'm trying to unload with only 2,400 miles on them...I'd like to get $500 for them...a new set would run you $800...so...I figure almost half off for a set with low miles is fair... oopsitouchedmyself 10-24-2009, 06:30 AM i've never rotated my tires cause i'm too lazy. i have 16000 some miles on my car and i still have a bit of tread up front. lot more in the back. i'm always burning the tires too, gotta love that 2nd gear wheel spin once you're tuned.. so if anyone in the southern wisconsin area wants to buy them from me i'm getting my snow tires put on in a week or so and will not need them anymore. rukkee 10-24-2009, 11:55 AM I'm at 7K miles and my fronts are gone in the center . I tried to adjust the air pressure to save the center's but no matter what i did the car wanted to eat the middle of the tire. Cptnsweet 10-25-2009, 01:53 AM i sold the wheels and tires for 1000 the tires only had 1200 miles on them though. you hsould be able to get a few hundred for just the tires J.U. 996SPS 10-25-2009, 10:20 AM How are the RE-11's? cereal83 10-26-2009, 09:03 AM Took me 35000 km to burn through the front tires and the back ones looked brand new. Sold them and got some Hankook RS2 or something. Stock tires arent bad at all |
