Looking for 16" summer tires. 245/45 rear.
Looking to be purchasing some 16" rota slipstreams shortly to cut a bunch of weight from th ap2 v3 wheels which weigh 23 lbs for the rears. I don't want to spend $200 a tire for new oem s02's so seeing if anyone has any nice used 16" staggered tires FS. Let me know if you do and what your looking to get for them.

Oh not bad at all. They come in 245/45/16 size? Hows tread life do you know?
Tread life is rated at 200.
I have about 2k on mine and plenty left. I would say i'll get about 10k out of them for road use, more if I rotate. However I plan on auto-x'ing them so I'll probably get about 5k out of the set
edit** if you're worried about wear these may not be the tires for you. Grip levels are achieved via a softer compound.
Maybe look into Fuzion ZRI or Yokohama AVS. However they are not going to give you the anywhere near the same levels of grip.
YEah had the Fuzion's and they suck. Right now I have the re050's on my wheels. Winter is definitely not a good time for them. Way to hard in the cold, but seemed really good the few warm days I had them on during the fall. 10k miles might be a little less miles then I would like though. Drove over 30k miles last year with my S so 3 sets a year would be a bit.
I'll take a look at them, but definitely not going with Fuzions again. They suck imo compared to other performance tires. Were much better in snow though haha.

^Thanks. I think I am hopefully getting some 17" Volks now so if I do I won't be needing the 16" tires. I will let you know if I get the Rota's and then I'll pick these up most likely.
