Selling tires
Hi all,
I had a 2007 Mini S-Cooper and unfortunately due to the economy, had to get rid of it.
I have two 16" Continental runflat tires that I have tried to sell on this via the Marketplace with no luck.
If anyone has thoughts on helping me sell these two tires I would appreciate it.
Thanks

I have the ad on Craigslist and Ebay and had it on here until it expired...I paid $275 per tire ($550) and am only looking for $300 total...and there is more than 75% tread left...I am in Melrose (Boston area)...I will put another ad up on this and thanks for your thoughts...
I thought runflats were big with Mini people, I had two Minis and only used runflats...the ride is much nicer...but more expensive too...

Even among the first generation S owners, I see the trend of people moving away from the runflats. Probably for handling reasons. Those cars actually need them, as there is no spare from factory. I think people interested in used tires are looking for a bargain. And when you can buy brand new non-runflats installed with roadhazzard for about $100 each, the understandably more valuble runflats are not as attractive at your price point. This is conjecture on my part, but I imagine most of those willing to pay the premium for the runflats are not in the used tire market to begin with. Best of luck to you.
