For sale: used 275/315 Michelin MXX3 tires

zrchris · 05-31-2002, 07:52 PM

Set of Michelin MXX3's off my ZR-1:

2 275/40-17 5-6/32 tread (precisely .17-.19"), uniform except one outer edge rounded, about 3/32 at lowest spot in rounding.

2 315/35-17 3-4/32 (precisely .10-.12") tread, uniform

These tires are symmetric and non-directional, so the rounded edge shouldn't be a problem, it can be put on the inside. My car has a habit of wearing the outer edge of the driver's side tire I guess due to making more RH turns.

I believe original depth was 10/32. 2.5 years old, 30k miles to this point, these tires wear great despite the 140 TW, and still give great traction, much better than GSCs. With sensible driving they definitely have a bunch of life left.

Tires are still in use right now, but I have new tires to mount next week sometime. I can take pics this weekend if needed.

$300 obo + actual UPS shipping from 30318 zip (Atlanta).

Prefer not to separate, but post if interested- if I can easily get a buyer for each pair, I'll do that.

thanks,

Chris

I'm interested in MXX3 315/35-17 pair if you find a buyer for the 275's. Is 3/32" considered usable tread? I guess I'm in AZ so it doesn't need much :)

And if I get these, someone with 9.5" rims can have my MXX3 285/40-17 pretty cheap and have a full set: 275 front / 285 rear...

George has a pair of 285's to sell if he buys these 315s. Anyone in the market for a pair of 275s or 285s, or both together?

if the 285's are in good shape I will take them. (assuming right price)
