Getting rid of 215/45/ZR18 Kumho Ecsta SPT summer performance tires - LIKE NEW!

So I bought my 06 SS/sc last week (woohoo!), but they had thrown brand new summer performance tires on it. Made the last week fun as hell, but since I live in IL and I can't afford to swap between two sets of tires every year, I have to get rid of 'em.

They were put on by the dealership when they got the car, so they haven't even been used for 3 weeks. The tread's like brand new. For reference, I think they are these:

Kumho Ecsta SPT

I'd like to get rid of them for $400 for all 4, or maybe even less. I need to do it ASAP before we see our first freezing rain and I die a horrible death I'll miss 'em come spring time, but I'm poor and am way better off with all seasons.

If anyone is actually interested let me know and I can get some pictures of the tread. If you can store them all winter they are sure to be fun next season. Figured I'd post here before I head to craigslist - I've been lurking around for a couple weeks now trying to decide whether or not to buy this car. Probably looks fishy that my first post is selling something, haha. I'm not trying to rip anyone off though, I'd do PayPal and send copies of the shipping receipts and such.

Oops, posted the wrong link. It's fixed up above.

Also, is this the right size to be buying for our car? Tirerack seems to want to suggest 17's..

I am looking at these for my all-seasons purchase, I'd love any opinions while I'm here

Continental ExtremeContact DWS


Anywho, I'm at work and can't post pictures of the tread, but if anyone thinks they might be interested I'll try to get some good pictures. These tires are coming off of my car either Monday or Tuesday most likely, so I could ship them pretty quickly.

I don't have a depth measuring tool, but I'll stick a quarter in 'em so you can see it. I will try to get pictures when I leave work tonight or tomorrow morning if I need more light.

If you still don't know how to post pics, upload them to a picture hosting website (Flickr, photobucket, etc) then copy on the [img] code and paste it here.

Yep - I'll ship anywhere in the US. We can argue about who pays for it, but I'll provide the shipping receipts to be honest either way. Price is still flexible too.

Here's what I just took, I've never exactly sold tires before so if you need different angles or anything let me know. Disclaimer: they are quite a bit dirty due to some rain earlier this week.

Are they still for sale? Are you willing to ship to 44147? It is a business so it will be a bit cheaper.

Yep, they're still ready to go! Sorry for not updating for awhile.

I'm not able to do a trade, my all seasons are already on order and will be put on Monday. If anyone's willing to do paypal I can ship in the US (I'd prefer to at least go 50/50 on the shipping, receipt will be provided of course, not looking to rip anyone off)

Let me know! My appointment is 10am Monday, so I can UPS 3-day 'em and you should have them before next weekend.

I can cover the shipping if we agree on a reasonable price.
