Description:

The set of 4 Bridgestone Turanza LS 100 run flat all weather/touring tires was one of the options I had to select from when I purchased my new Mini Clubman S in the late spring.  I knew from the start that I would change them out.   So how long were they on my car?  Less than 200 miles at the very most is my best estimate.  If I didn't tell you, I doubt you could tell they were ever on my car.  (The dealership is 83 miles away and I drove it to the grocery a couple miles away before the new tires and wheels
came in, so actually is less than 100 miles on them.)  I will sell you the tires separate from the wheels or the wheels separate from the tires.  I will drive up to 200 miles from zip code 40509 to deliver or meet you.  If you really are interested in having these shipped, which would cost an arm and a leg, I will also pack and ship, insured but you will need to pay for the cost of shipping.  After removing, I cleaned the wheels and tires, put them in cloth tire storage bags on a shelving unit setting flat. (As recommenced.)


Here is the info on the tires:
    Bridgestone Turanza LS 100, L100AZ
     Star RSC BMW, Runflat
    Treadwear:  560
    Traction:  A
     Temperature: A
     Load Range: XL
     225/40R/S18  92H
     Current retail for set of 4:  $1,191.76

This is the official written description: Grand Touring All-Season tires are for drivers who want a combination of a sophisticated appearance, competent handling and H-speed rated (or higher) durability, along with all-season traction, including in light snow. Grand Touring All-Season tires branded with the M+S symbol are often used as Original Equipment (O.E.) on sophisticated coupes and luxurious performance sedans.

O.E. Grand Touring All-Season tires are typically purchased as direct replacements for worn-out pairs/sets of the vehicle's original tires. They can also be used for other vehicle applications in complete sets of four or axle pairs if available in an appropriate size, load range and speed rating to match the existing O.E. tires' performance category and specifications."

Also Note:  Only one other tire was rated higher in this category (the Michelin Cross Climate 2).  The tires are apparently very difficult to find in stock.  The current MSRP at large volume online retailer is $287.73 per tire.

As to the wheels, these are OEM for the 2021 Mini Clubman S with the Iconic trim.  I think the wheels may be on other Mini models as well. They will come as shown in photos.  The wheels are called star spoke and remain major option for the Mini Clubman in 2022 as well.  A set of four USED are being offered for close to $2,000.  I can't find a listing for these new but will continue to search (if you have information I would appreciate a message)  I am not sure what year the Minis started using this wheels so 2016 is my best guess based on when 3rd generation changes started.

Basically if you purchased these new you would be looking at around $4,000. for the entire set of 4 (with flat tire monitors installed).  I need to make a decision soon as to whether to put these back on my car for the winter or not.  I would prefer to sale them and put a different winter tire on my car so am listing them to see if there is any interest.

I will drive up to 200 miles from zip code 40509 to meet you as shipping is very high on something this large and heavy.  I have them sit up as local pickup. If it shows something else please disregard.  The Ebay system has been not working for the last few days.

Thanks!
