I have (4) Bridgestone Blizzak WS-50 (Winter) tires (Size: 195/60QR15)
that were on my 2000 Toyota Celica GT.
They have been used for two winters here in Rochester.
I am asking $150.00 or BO.
Thanks,
Lee

The price is too high. After 2 winters the soft rubber is worn off
and they become ordinary radial tires.

Don't forget to add $15-20 per tire for mounting/balancing. For good
snow tire prices check tirerack.com. Buy the tires+rims from them and
they mount/balance them for no extra charge.

I didn't know that tires degraded over time....
It's possible the seller has a short commute.

$20 per tire? Perhaps you should tell your mechanic that the price is too
high instead of sniping sellers.

Are you insane? Do it yourself or get a mechanic to do it for anything from
10 for all ... or free.

do it yourself........?

mounted many tires on rims in your backyard have you ?

and how do you balance these tires, spin them on the wife's lazy suzan and
"eye-ball" it ??

couldn't get to the gym for a good workout that day???

anyone can take a jack and a tire iron and change tires when the others are
mounted on the rims .............

hehehehe
