MI 245/40-10 BFG R1, cheap.

Category: Wheels & Tires
Price: $200
Private or Vendor Listing: Private Listing
Part Fits (you may select multiples): Others, Series I, Series II
Location (US State/Canada/Int): MI
Item Condition: Used

UPDATE: WHEELS ARE SOLD!!! Thanks.

BFGoodrich G Force R1 tires, 245/40-18. Tires new are ~$300 ea, have two days of use on them. Perfect for HPDE.

Sold the RX-8, and these aren't even close to fitting on a Mini Cooper.

Located in SE Michigan, will split shipping if offer is solid.



The tires are in great shape too. The "dot" in the below picture is the wear indicator. Still pretty darn close to full tread depth.



Close up of the grooves on the tire. When the grooves are gone the tires still have life left.

Do you know if they will fit a speed 3 without modifying the bodywork..
Do you have the manufacture date of the tires.
Where in S.E. Michigan are you.

Sorry for all the questions but I am thinking of moving up a class in autox and these might be my first upgrade from stock class. Just want to know that they will fit and will be good to get me started next year. I live in Syracuse but travel to London, On quite often and would consider making the trip to pick them up and save on shipping. Anyway, let me know and I'll get back to you.


Thanks

I'm sorry, I do not know if they will fit a Speed3. 245 is pretty wide, I'd check a Mazda3 forum to see if anyone has tried it.

I do not know if manufacture date is stamped on the tire, but I can look. If I had to guess, I would say early part of last year. Please note that is a guess.

Honestly, I would not use these tires for autox. They'll work, but will not be as sticky as a Hoosier A6 or Kumho. They are closer to a Hoosier R6 in compound, which is firmer. I'm not sure if you could get enough heat in them on autocross runs. They are monsters after a warmup lap on a track though!

If you are still interested, I am in Dearborn or Rochester Hills.
