I took the tire/wheel combo off my 2004 MCS after only 26 miles. Have been sitting in my garage ever since. They are in perfect condition. They can be picked up in Memphis TN. or they can be shipped. Price $700 plus shipping if needed.
Anyone need them?
Thanks
No interest? The tires alone cost $700 and the wheels list for $900, my combo is already mounted, balanced with center caps and lug nuts. Surely somebody wants them!

I recently bought a set of the S-lites with All-season tires for under $500. So that might explain the lack of response.....
The tires may cost $700+ and the wheels $900 but together with the sport package they cost less than $500.

>>Anybody?
Obviously there is a market for these wheels but not on NAM (performance nuts only??)
Some suggestions for you.
There is nothing wrong with the S-lyte wheels and Pirelli runflats. $700 for perfect ones are a good price but not a great price. MINI owners that might be interested in the set or single wheels or tires would be:
Original 2002 or 2003 MC owners that have the stock 15" wheels that want the MCS look and don't mind the rougher ride and heavier wheel (stock 15" rim/tire combo is 26 pounds compared to S-lyte/runflat at 48 pounds each). The S-lytes are best suited for cruising on smooth roads and for performance driving (compared to the stock 15" wheels).
Or any MCS owner that has hit the "Pothole from Hell" and damaged a runflat tire or rim or both. Pretty common.
Or any MCS owner (esp women that need the safety of runflats and don't want to be changing a flat in the middle of the freeway or at night) that has worn their runflats down and want to replace them with runflats but don't want to spend $180+ each for the Pirellis or $280+ each for the Dunlop Sport 9000 DSST tires.
Get in contact with your local MINI group or BMW CCA and let others know you have wheels and tires for sale. Shipping by ground isn't out of the question but anyone in your area would be the best bargain opportunity.
Good luck.
