My newly acquired 914 came with Michelin XZX SR 15's. They are at least 12 years old as the car has been off the road and under a tarp for that period of time. They look almost brand new (no cracks or dry rubber). The rubber is in great shape, due to lack of sun exposure, with a lot of tread left.
Are these tires worth the effort of putting on ebay or selling directly? I'm thinking of replacing them if someone with a show car could use them. If the value is the same as new tires, I'll sell. Otherwise I'll drive on them. Thanks! |

I use to run those tires back in 75/76 and were a very desireable tire. I use go all over So.Cal looking for used because with very little tread left they were like racing tires. Great for PCA time trials. Don't know what they are worth nowadays. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)
