These four Michelins will be takeoffs from my new Scion FR-S on Day 1. There will most likely be about 10 miles on them. The car should arrive in about 2-3 weeks, thought I'd line up a buyer early. Local pickup Portland Eastside, or you can pick them up at the tire dealer (America's Tire Co., Gresham, OR) when they're removed, estimating June 10-11, 2013. Tirerack has these for $205/each plus freight making them an over $220 tire so this price is about 60% off retail. They fit all kinds of cars, check the tirerack site link provided for fitment specs. They are OEM on some models of Prius, Prius C, Prius V and Camry Hybrid plus will fit Corolla, Camry and Avalon. "The Primacy HP is Michelin's Grand Touring Summer tire developed to provide longer tread life and lasting performance throughout the tire's life, as well as better braking, steering control and handling on wet roads. The Primacy HP meets Michelin's Green X standard* for low rolling resistance that confirms the tire's contribution to reducing vehicle fuel consumption and emissions of CO2 gases. While Primacy HP tires are designed to offer reliable traction in dry and wet conditions, they are not intended to be driven in near-freezing temperatures, through snow or on ice. Primacy HP tires benefit from Michelin design innovations known as A.S.M. (Architecture, Sculpture and Materials) reflecting Michelin's ability to focus simultaneously on three fundamental factors that determine a tire's capabilities. Using their A.S.M. design method, Michelin can develop tires that combine an architecture that deforms more easily to optimize contact with the road, a tread design sculpture that remains rigid so more of the footprint contributes to performance, and unique tread compound materials precisely blended by Michelin's mixing technology. Primacy HP tires use a new generation Michelin tread compound molded into an asymmetric tread design that features large, linked shoulder blocks, notched intermediate ribs and a solid center rib to combine responsive handling and high-speed stability with traction and even treadwear. The Primacy HP tire's structure includes twin steel belts reinforced by size-optimized BAZ Technology (spiral-wrapped Polyamide Banded At Zero degrees to tire rotation) to enhance ride quality while providing high-speed durability."

Forgot to mention that this an exclusive price for Priuschat and a 10% discount from the local CL ad: New Michelin Primacy HP Tires (4) 215/45R-17 I figure the knowledgeable readers here can relate to the offer a little better than the average CL lowballers and will save both of us time.
