Anyone selling low mileage runflats

Time for some new tyres...anyone have a set of Dunlop 16" runflats, with very low miles, they want to sell?? I live in Concord, NC so would like someone local to avoid the shipping costs

Are you sure you want to spend that kind of money. For the price of 1 1/3 runflat you can get a whole set of NITTO Gens which aren't as noisey and run alot smoother. Just a thought. Most of us wear the runflats out replace them with regular radials and buy a can of fix--a-flat and keep phone charged up. I personally put over 65K on mine without runflats and never had a problem.

Check the Alabama group's page. Looks like a good deal.

We just swapped wheels and tires on the Clubman to non run flats and would love to be rid of the tires. Not sure if they're Dunlops or not. Is that sad or what. Shout back if you're still interested. Very good shape, car only has 14K likes and they've been off for probably 5K of those so they are fairly low mileage. And yea, I almost forgot, they are 16 inch.
