is there a market for these in the ChicagoLand area???...I have a set with under 900 miles on them but went with all seasons and am just wondering if anyone knows if there is any market for these OEM summer tires in the ChicagoLand area...

does everyone just keep the summer run flats until they are used up before buying something else???...

Pirelli OEM summer run flats in the P245 40 18/P275 35 18...from a CTS V-Sport and I'm unsure if that size works for other CTS cars...

any help or resources would be appreciated...I know online sites might be the way to go but I thought a dedicated Cadillac site might give a more directed answer...

Craigslist or Facebook marketplace might be a good avenue for a quick sale.
Just don't get murdered on the meet-up, Bill-- we'd miss you.

I asked at Discount Tire if the gave anything for my take offs since they had under 900 miles on them and are less than 3 months old...I was told they don't do that (I know some tire stores sell take offs)...I just didn't want to give the tires away and pay the disposal fee on practically brand new tires if someone here might need/want them...

I wish too that this Forum was more active somewhat like the 2nd Gen Forum as I hoped someone like us could make use of them...no dice so far...

thanks...those are my only choices if I want to keep it local and hopefully quick...thanks Long...and I'll be careful ;)

I sold my pirelli’s on Craigslist in two days to a young bmw owner who needed our staggered 18 sizes right away and couldn’t find his size at any stores right away. I had 3500 miles on them and got $200, just wanted them gone.

thanks for that...I certainly haven't gotten even an inquiry here after more than 3 days in the classifieds...

This Pirelli is a horrible tire. It trams like crazy on the freeway. These tires should not be manufactured.

that's why I replaced my brand new ones as soon as I could...trameling and hard ride...I went with non run flats albeit with all season tires: The Continental DWS-06 Plus
