Anyone in Portland area need 2 Pilot Sport A/S?

I just replaced my rear tires with Potenza RE960, and my VDC isn't liking me, so I'm replacing my front Michelin Pilot Sport All/Season with Potenzas, even tho they aren't even close to being worn out.

They are 245/40-18. I measured the treads, and there is ~8/32" left... Brand new, these tires had 11/32".

I'm thinking I can sell these for $100 a piece, (new they are $250). I was very happy with these tires' performance. Never had any problems with em', and they've never been damaged.

I thought I'd see if there were any local takers before I throw em' onto ebay or something.

I apologize ahead of time, if I'm not supposed to post something like this...

I know exacltly what you're talking about.. if you missmatch tires when you take a corner your cars feels like it brakes for you.. feels pretty unsafe.. I went through the same thing.. good luck with the sale

The new tires might just have a little coating of wax or other preservative that is causing your VDC to react. Sometimes it takes a few miles for that to wear off.
