Default Kumho Ecsta Tires For Sale (Less than List)

Since no one wants both the wheels and tires, I have split up my original post to offer each separately.

These tires are the Kumho Ecsta V700 autocross/roadrace tires - 275/40ZR17 for the front and 335/35R17 for the rear. They won big at SCCA Solo II Nationals on Z06's last year.:steering:

TireRack survey lists dry traction at 9, wet traction at 7.3, cornering at 8.7, and treadwear at 5.5.

They are pretty damn-sweet rubber.:cool:


I bought them from TireRack and spent over $770 at the time. Since prices have dropped, I will sell them at their new cost of $660. I will pay the shipping. These are brand-new, never raced tires.:smash:

A couple of questions:

1. Have they been heat cycled?

2. Have they been shaved?

3. Would they fit the following rim specs?
17" x 8.5"
18" x 9.5"

Uhh...his post clearly says they are 17", so I'm going to go out on a limb here and suggest that 2 of them might not fit on your 18" rims. But you could try....

Escher-

To put it more politely - they are not heat cycled or shaved, but they are as brand new as they were out of the box. The front would fit your 17 x 9.5" rims, however, the rears are also 17" tires, so they would not fit the 18's. They are currently mounted on rims which I'll throw in for $500 if you are interested.
