FS: 17" Michelin Pilot Sport Cups ~New
I have a set of four 255/40-ZR17 Michelin Pilot Sport Cups, purchased from and heat cycled by Tire Rack, run in one 20-min abbreviated track session. I purchased these in February as backup/rain tires but they do not fit well in my track car (not a Porsche) and I don't want to change things. The 255s are actually *huge,* bigger than the profile implies with a 10.7" width on 9" wheels.
Full tread depth of 6/32" remains. The original mold nubbins are still intact, even on the tread (see pics). Tires are clean and ready to go. This is an excellent tire that will wear much better than most R-compounds (Michelin rates them 80).
$260 each at Tire Rack. You can have all 4 for $575 + shipping from 92024 (San Diego). My loss is your gain.

I have two sets of these same tires that I bought last fall. I mounted them but have not used them. They are a bit large for my car. If anyone is interested, make an offer. I can provide pictures as well. PM me. Recap: unused, shipping from 77386.
Thanks.
