SOLD: Four 16 2000 TL wheels rims & BLIZZAK snows
Tires are kind of worn, but you should be able to get at least one more season out of them.
One rim is slightly scratched from a curb that was hiding below 8 of snow one day.
Otherwise they are in great shape.
400 + shipping
PayPal only or CASH if local.
Im willing to deliver these if youre fairly close to eastern PA if you give me some bucks for gas.
Otherwise youre probably looking at 100-120 for shipping.

How many miles are on the tires? Reason I am asking:
How Long Will a Blizzak Winter Tire Last?
The Blizzak's Multicell tread compound comprises the top 55 percent of the tires' tread depth, with a standard winter tread compound comprising the remaining 45 percent. When Blizzaks are approximately 50 percent worn, their "snow platform" tread depth indicators "connect" selected shoulder tread blocks to indicate that the Multicell tread compound is almost worn out, and that the enhanced snow and ice performance is about to end.
We have personal experience on a wide range of vehicles from sports cars to SUVs. Our experience, and that of our customers, indicates that Blizzak winter tires will typically provide 12,000 to 15,000 miles of winter service before wearing out their Multicell tread compound. Therefore, Blizzaks are providing an estimated two to four winter seasons of wear from their Multicell tread compound for the driver who drives an average total of 15,000 miles per year (with 3,000 to 4,000 winter miles per year).
Blizzak winter tires are not recommended to be reinstalled when their tread depth has worn down to the "snow platform" tread depth indicators before the start of the winter season.

Ive used them for FIVE winter seasons, but I dont drive much in the snow.
Some people only get a year or two out of them because they drive aggressively and put on 5,000 miles a winter.
I always wait until the day before the first snowstorm to put them on and they come off as soon as the weather clears.
Longest Ive ever had them on is probably 3-months or about 2,500 miles in one season.
One year we hardly got any snow and they were only on the car for a few weeks.
The last two years I've used the wife's RAV4 in the winter for most driving.
You cant go by mileage alone because it has a lot to do with your driving style.
I drive like a GRANNY when these are on because I wanted them to last.
My description and pictures clearly show that they are worn and will probably only be good for one more season.
I'm not saying that they will be as good as new.
Im basically selling the Rims and the tires are FREE.

Also, when you pay for new tire mounting, the DISMOUNT of the old tire is free.
If I end up shipping these out, it will be worth the money so I only have to ship the rims.
If I sell locally, use them for a year then get new rubber for next year and get rid of the tires then.

I'm considering them since I am within driving distance of you and wouldn't mind getting these since I do plan on driving a bit in the winter.
350 is the lowest you can go for a pickup/delivery (gas money if you deliver) and do you accept paypal? I can pay any extra fee's associated with paypal if you would like.

I think these might be more valuable in December, but I want them out of my garage now if possible.
Yes, I take PayPal. Dont worry about the credit card fees. Its only a couple bucks.
Depending on how far away you are I can meet you halfway if you have a vehicle large enough to fit them in.
Depending how far, Ill deliver them all the way to your house if you cover my gas cost.
Let me know

The question would be, would they fit in the trunk of a CL? I think w/o the spare I could get three in there, one in the back seat. Thoughts on this?
It is 82miles from where I live to Hellertown. If they fit in the CL I am probably going to be in Doylestown on RT. 611 near Willow Grove AFB on Friday or Sunday if that would make it closer for you.

I can put them in garbage bags if two need to go on the back seat.

Yeah you could put tires in the back seat, but not in my car. Heck I only allow diet drinks and no food in my car.
Id also like to say that even when these tires are worn, they are probably still the best snow tire made. I always ran blizzaks before I got a 4wd
