Anyone need some Kuhmo V710's

I listed my tires in the for sale section but really haven't received the interest I was anticipating. Most people who sent pm's were only interested in the OEM rims that the tires are currently mounted on. I figured posting in here may be better, since you are the guys using these tires. I'm hoping that the mods realize this and leave this thread here.

As you'll see, there is two options...wheels and tires, or just tires. I have several buyers lined up for the wheels if anyone in here just wants the tires.

Here's the link to the for sale thread I posted a while back.

Not going to find many sets of usable/competitive V710's. You'll find a lot of take-offs (for real cheap), but they will have over 70 runs on them...and they are only going to be good for practice days.

Yeah, I know that this is a 'once in a blue moon' kind of deal but it's still 600 dollars+ shipping + price of removing from wheels and then I have to have them installed on my wheels which adds up and the whole college student situation isn't helping either.

Good luck though.

Um... Maybe you can borrow me the wheels and I can wear out the tires on Sept 9th at Willow Springs.

will they last 5 sessions or 100 miles of HDPE?

How much will it cost me for the tires? Then I can return them to you and you can sell the wheels.

Now only to figure out how to transport 4 tires, umm... 2 with me and two with Dave.

Need to know quick as Dave want to go with me in his 8. We need to know by Friday noon.

track guys would know if these would work for you or not. I fit all four tires in the car. Two behind the passenger seat, one behind my seat...so I can move my seat back, and one in the trunk. All in black plastic bags to protect the leather.

Would it really be worth 600 bucks to burn a set of tires up?

Not really.

Depends upon how long they will last.
