Two have 50% rubber, and two have about 65% rubber. Even wear on all four and no patched holes. All four tires are 245 40 18 Dunlop SP Sport 01 DSST

hmmm are they speed rated? and how much do you want? might be a cheap option for me to have a set of rubber for this spring without having to buy new tires flat out... my conti's are bald.. just not sure they would clear without rubbing

As long as you're not lowered they shouldn't rub. Although I think there have been a few people with 245 and were lowered and did not rub either.

Speed rated? Speed rating is 186mph. I got them o. Kijiji for 650 but I'll take 600$

You roll your quarters any pyke?

And my car isn't lower and they fit perfect! But I do have the eibach
Sport line springs on, doesn't lower it much tho.

i didnt roll my fenders at all my tires did tho lol, but the most of the rubbing is on the inner portion like where the strut mounts i think i have a few pics some where, but cant seem to find them, this is how low i might be next summer if i can get the exhaust to clear like i want it to, the pic i took the exhaust off and lowered the car as far as it goes.
Stance Coilovers for the win!!!!
i also have my camber set at 3 degrees so i dont rub much when taking turns, only time it rubs on the fender is when im turning and i hit a nasty dip or bump, other then that its all in on the frame rails/engine bay

Wow I would never pay 650 for a second hand set of tires. You can get 4 shipped to your door new from discount tire direct for that price.

Altho new those dunlops run almost $400 a piece because they are run flats.
