    100 for all 4. Probably more like 40% tread...a little less on the outsides of a couple. I could bring them to firestone friday if you want to check em out.

    When I popped the old tires off my stock rims, two of them were non-Potenza tires and they were in such good shape that the tire shop gave me $15 each for them rather than charging for disposal; their intent was to resell them for $20 apiece. Sorry I don't recall the brand (General something?) but they were non-directional blackwall 205/55.16's with two prominent circumferential(?) grooves in the tread.

    The bad news is, they're in Rochester (I assume you're in the Cities?), but if you're desperate and can't find anything else, I could buy them back and bring them with me this weekend. PM me with your address and stuff before Friday afternoon if you're SURE you want them. Sorry, no pics, just my testimony that they held air and rode fine and I only got rid of them to get my wheels powdercoated and a new matched set of 4 tires.

    It's a common enough tire size that you shouldn't have too much trouble finding good cheap used ones locally, but I thought I'd throw that out as a fallback option for ya.

    |EDIT: On second thought, I think the brand was Continental, not General.

    Hey Justin I forgot to ask you about the tires. What kind of tires are they? Are they all season tires or summer tires?

    Thanks!
