    First of all - I know, it's a long shot.

    Lost a Nokian RSI today, they were on their 3rd winter. If anyone has any spare in the above size, please let me know, I would love to know the remaining tread depth on it and see if I can match it up.

    Otherwise, this may turn into a FS: 3 Nokians thread pretty soon :)

    Probably west of you.
    That's a GREAT price, I would go for that. I can't get them that cheap.

    Indeed that is a good price, but what are shaving costs like? There are easily 10-12,000 miles on these. Mine are wore down to the "6" on the wear bar.

    LOL!!!!!!!!
    shaving a nokian would turn it to snot, i would ONLY do one tire if u find a used tire of the same make and model AND make sure its within 2/32nds" tread depth compared to the other three!

    Guess what i've got...
    some pretty well worn down nokain RSIs. lucky for you, i didn't rotate very well :D
    2 rears have some good tread left on them... should be right around 2-3 winters worth of use.
    We'd have to talk price a little... the wheels' they're on are basically only used to hold my car up in storage, and they're currently out in BFE.
