Gentlemen,

One of my front 235/35/R19 T1Rs was sacrificed to the Bloombergian pothole nightmare that is our FDR drive in New York, and I'm seeking a replacement. If anyone has a line on where I might find a clean used one, or perhaps even has an extra one with some tread on it I'd be greatly appreciative and happy to take it off their/your hands.

Feel free to PM me

Best,
Hans

I assume you are hesitant to buy a new tire because of the tread depth difference. I wouldn't be & doubt you will notice any change.

Another option is to buy a new one and have it shaved down to match the existing tire's tread depth.

or buy 2 new ones. I freakin hate the FDR.

you hit the nail on the head. I would just buy a new one, but I'm moving away from the t1rs to the ventus v12s

It had crossed my mind, I'm fairly sure it will cost as much as:

+1, hate that frickin highway, am a west sider now, this is what I get for visiting brooklyn.

2 new is probably the right way to go since I want to move to ventus v12s all around (I did the rears before I put her away for the winter, they're fine mixed f/r since she's now a glorified city car, average speed on the computer is below 20mph, makes me wanna cry). The t1r up front has so much tread left I feel guilty wasting it!

it is probably not going to help you much now but after loosing some expensive tires I always buy hazard insurance from tirerack as it really works.

other online sources may be cheaper but i got burned couple of times with not having such insurance and i got to say - it helps a bit to know that you can replace this tire for free if you get a flat.
