Pirelli Winter 210 Sottozero tires 235/45/17
Almost new with less than 2k miles on these tires. Tread still measures 10/32nds which is essentially new. These are really great tires for those of you who want a winter set. Here's what they have to say about them:
Winter 210 Sottozero tires are Pirelli's "dual-season" Performance Winter tires that were developed to be effective as temperatures approach freezing and below from mid-autumn until early spring by offering hot performance compared to summer tires when driven on dry, wet or icy cold surfaces. Winter Sottozero tires are for the drivers of high performance sport cars, coupes and sedans who don't let their enthusiasm for driving cool off in winter.
The Winter Sottozero tread compound utilizes cap and base technology that combines two different compounds. The upper strata (cap) that comes into contact with the road surface uses Pirelli's latest generation silanes to bind the silica and polymer to provide greater stability during hard driving in both wet and dry conditions. The sub-strata in contact with the casing (base) uses nano-composites (aluminum silicates) dispersed throughout the polymer to provide the stiffness that enhances stability and driving precision. The tread compound is molded into an asymmetric tread pattern divided into distinct inner and outer elements to blend traction in snow and on ice with drivability on dry and wet roads. On the inside, they utilize Pirelli's ultra high performance tire structures to offer levels of performance not normally associated with winter tires.
All Winter Sottozero Performance Winter tires meet the industry's severe snow service requirements and are branded with the snowflake-on-the-mountain symbol.
$400 obo + shipping

If you have these in a few months.. let me know... I might be interested.
Not sure if I want 235/45 or something smaller... since the only problem is that... in Montreal snow goes up to my knees in matter of an hour or two [which can build up while at school or work].

Thanks VC
These tires are so good I hate to get rid of them. I'm having 2nd thoughts of keeping these and ditching the XMX4's even if it cost $100 in remounting fees to do so. I'll let them ride for a few more days and if they don't sell I'll switch them over this weekend.

But at the moment I need summer tires more than anything.
Just out of curiosity, would you be willing to ship the tires to canada?

Would you be interested in meeting half way between the Chicago burbs and you? I checked mapquest and it's about 4 hours. 2 hour drive each, and I'll pick them up from you this weekend if you want. Cash, no shipping, no hassles.
