(2) 225/45/19, (2) 245/40/19 stock re050a potenza *NEW*
these are brand new, straight off G37 sport 19" rims. they're pretty much BRAND NEW, only about 40 miles on them driving home from the dealer. i'm keeping the rims and selling the tires. i was originally only gona sell the front tires, and move the rears to the front and buy new rears, but now i'm deciding to sell the whole set because now i have my heart set on vredestein ultrac sessantas 245/40 275/35. plus i think its easier to find interest in a set of 4 tires rather than just 2 tires.
from tire rack, the 225s are $263 each and the 245s are $305 each. thats $1,136. add tax and shipping and your looking at almost $1,300 for these tires.
i'll be honest, i just want to make enough to cover the cost of the vredesteins, which i should be able to get my hands on for about $950. so i'll let these go for $950 picked up or $1,000 shipped. i'm located in northern nj, 20 minutes from nyc. so $1,300 tires for $950. can't imagine someone beating that.

+1, woady is trying to sell the same tires for about the same price with no luck as far as I know.
People buy them new because they can get a warranty through the dealer. They will pay extra for that piece of mind. Honestly, you're going to be hard pressed to get over $700 from anyone on this forum. And yes, there is a set on eBay right now for around $1100, rims AND tires.

I'm not interested in your tires. I have a set in my garage that I'm keeping because I know I can't sell them for what they are "worth" IMO because they are used. I'm keeping them and when my Falkens need replaced I'll put the OEM's back on.
GLWS though,

How would you compare the Falkens to the RE950's? Folks I've spoken with like the wear, but complain about them breaking loose way too easy. That, and just not having near the grip on mountain roads and high G twisties.

The Bridgestones handle fine and treadwear is on par with all high performance summer tires for sure. You would do good to wear them till their slick and enjoy the ride.
I'm afraid what you'll end up with is wasting money pulling them off, only to end up selling them for $700 tops. That's just the way it is. I'd given you $800 shipped but $950 plus shipping and you'll end up with them till they dryrot, sorry.
Oh, and the other thread that folks directed you to with 'mint' Bridgestones. Those are coming to me, hand delivered none the less for $800. (From Jacksonville to Atlanta by w0ady.)
FWIW, mine are OEM runflats on my 06 6mt. I drive fairly spirited (when I drive). It's taken 38 months to get 16432 on them with tread still showing on the rears (not enough for rain however... but I've only been in the rain once and that was by accident). The fronts will last at least till 20K before I change them. At this rate, by the time I wear out another set the car will be well over 6 years old. At least I didn't have to worry about payments on the darned thing. Paid cash.

Why did you pull the Bridgestones off to begin with? I mean, if you need a winter set I can see it for sure. That being said, you can buy your rims on the forums for $650~$750 or so and stick winter tires on.
