I'm in the Greater Seattle area and have...
1 Continental ProContact TX 245/40/R19
2 Continental ProContact TX 275/35/R19
Reason I only have one 245/40/R19 tires is I damaged one running directly into a curb. Ouch, even thinking of it. Due to the fact that a replacement tire would have taken a week to arrive, I tried to buy a "throw away" locally as I had a fishing trip that I would have driven my car to and then replaced with another Continental ProContact when I returned.
However, the story I got for 2 or 3 shops that I called told me they wouldn't do it for insurance reasons. Some crap about a mismatch. I wasn't planning on driving like I was in the Indy 500 on the throw away, but I wasn't going to go on a 200 mile trip each way on my donut. So, since I had the "scratch", I just replaced the lot at Costco.
The 3 tires I have above in my opinion are like new. I'm not a hard "accelerator" and I mostly coast to stops without braking until the last few feet. Someone else sold some similar tires here a while back and told me the shipping charge was about $300 or $75 a tire. So, if anyone's interested in these tires, the price is $175 including shipping. The link below has these tires these tires at $315.
Will sell all 3 or the 275/35/R19 only as a pair. IF I only sell the 275's, and I can find a junk wheel, it would be going into my trunk as a replacement for the donut. Best match for a buyer would be someone local.
