WTB - OEM Bridgestone Potenza RE040

Had a left rear blowout 2 weeks ago - tire was ruined.
This necessitated installing winter tires and rims early - what a pain.
Thinking forward to next spring, I will need to buy at least 2 new tires or find one (or more) OEM Bridgestones that are about 1/2 worn out to match up with my 3 remaining good tires.

Anyone have one (or more) 1/2 worn Bridgestone Potenza RE040's they want to sell?

I have a couple of 1/2 worn OEM bridgestones... they were both on the front tires.

I dont know what the cost of shipping a tire from alberta is, but its an option if you can't get a local deal.

Shipping

Hippak:

Based upon previous experience with shipping tires, wheels etc., it would likely cost too much to bring them in from Alta.

Thank you very much for the offer, though.

I've got 4 of these in my garage.

Are you looking to buy 4 or just 2?

No worries at all.

If you do have some extra cash available this might be a good opportunity to ditch the OEM tires. They're pretty dreadful to say the least. You can pickup a set of generals from tirerack (245/40/18s) for around $700 shipped with duties and taxes to Toronto. I purchased a set of tires for my mother in law on sunday night an they were delivered on Tuesday using regular shipping.

Goodluck either way.
