Testing Waters: NEW Bridgestone Potenza RE-01R 245/45/17

SOLD

As the title states I'm entertaining offers on my BRAND NEW tires

Model: Bridgestone Potenza RE-01R
Size: 245/45/17
Item Location: Davis, CA

Will not even bother replying to lowball offers. I think $500 is a good place to start. Remember, BRAND NEW. I'm in no hurry to get rid of these things. All serious offers will be replied to, and highest offers will be posted occasionally. Just because the highest offer is posted, it DOES NOT mean that I guarantee a transaction. Will only do if the price is right.
Also, will not ship unless its absolutely worth it.

Thanks for looking everybody

UPDATE: 450 picked up FIRM takes these tires.

$500 is a start, but I'm still hesitant at that price. BUMP for brand new RE-01R's

what are the production dates on these? I know tire rack was selling a lot of RE-01R recently, so I want to make sure these are some of the newer ones, and not the old stock.

bump!

these are the 2005 production ones. tire rack said they've been in a temperature-controlled environment during storage. have been stores in doors in my room so as to never see near-freezing temps - it doesnt even get that cold in norcal anyways. if you're going to hardcore track the tires, these are not for you. otherwise, Luke@TireRack said these should be just as good as any other RE-01R's.

Unless i'm selling them at the price point of RE-11's in the same size, i dont see why not. Is there a problem? They aren't used or anything.

If you do your research, you will find that the newer-tire RE-11's cost 897 shipped to your door from tire rack in this size. Thats a near $400 premium over what I'm selling these for.

I think people need to get over the fact that the op got these at discounted prices. They WERE discounted and now they're not. Simple as that. If you want a brand new set for a unbeatable price then these are for you.. otherwise let the OP move his ish.

Actually RE-01R is discontinued & almost not available anywhere.

Still good price... but not as great as you could have got them directly from Tirerack.
