WTB: used 245/40/17, 255/40/17 Star Specs, RS3s, similar - Subaru Enthusiasts Car Club of the Sierras

Need to get a set of tires on the cheap. I'm not going for classing, so 255/40/17 works for me, and if I had the money I'd pick up a set of RS3s in that size.

For how few events I'll be able to make it to, used should last me through the year at least.

Alternative is Federal 595 RSRs in 265/35/18 but I'd need to sell my 235/35/18s first...

I've got a set of 245/40/17 Bridgestone re01r's with like 80-90% tread left on the rpf1s from my SVX. I was planning on swapping them over to my WRX because they're fantastic tires, but I'd let them go for around $400 I figure and put the money towards some r-comps instead.

Those might work! Wasn't expecting anything right away. Lemme check the finances...

Let me know as soon as you can. Someone else has PM'd me about the tires as well.

I have 2 of Toyo R888 255/40/17 & 2 of 225/45/17

Thanks Nat, but I need 4x the same.

I think I'll be running Scott's old RE01Rs. Should be a fun season.
