Thumbs up WINTER Tires on rims

Four 185/70-14 Michelin Arctic Alpins on steel wheels, and with four LX wheel covers. See pictures below.

Everything is cleaned and in perfect condition, even the wheel covers are in their original boxes.

$150 cash, you come pick them up in the Harrisburg PA area.

I bought them for my 2001 EX coupe and used them a few months one winter. I only had the car about a year then I traded it, so I still have the winter package sitting in my basement. YES THEY WORK ON AN EX!

Interested? PM Me [edit]

The center tread is not blocked, it's continuous and siped. This makes them very quiet for a winter tire, and they handle great in the dry and wet.

I had these same tires on my Acura TL, and I just bought them for our 99 CR-V.

They are not like dual-compound blizzaks, which only work in ice until they are halfway gone. The Michelin Arctic Alpins work in ice and snow the whole way through their treadwear.

P.S. I found the original invoice. I paid $63 per tire, $29 per wheel, and $23 per wheel cover, and $50 for shipping. If you bought this package new it would cost your $500!

I'd really don't want to mess with shipping them.

It would be less work to take out an ad in a local paper.

Selling wheels/tires in the newspaper usually works really fast because used car dealers come get them first day at this price.

Just seems right to sell them to an owner.
