    Free: Nine Blizzak 205/50 R17 89 winter tires (pick-up nr I-91 in Western Mass.)

    Through various misfortunes, I have accumulated nine Blizzak 205/50 R17 89 tires, which I’ve been saving for somewhat unnecessary reasons.

    But perhaps someone else can put them to some sort of use?
    (Only the WS60 really have any remaining use as winter tires, although the others might still be good for all-season use since “Multicell” tread compound is probably all gone.)

    Stopping by here will take you about 15 minutes roundtrip out of your travels along I-91.

    Details as follows:

    • 3x LM-25, ~22.5k miles, purchased December 2006 (the fourth fell victim to a nail probably picked up in a muddy ski area parking lot after some post-season skinning/skiing)
    • 2x WS60, ~7.8k miles, purchased November 2009 (the other two blew out on my brother and sister-in-law after hitting some sort of road hazard along a deserted interstate, and about nine months later my nephew was born)
    • 4x LM-25 RFT, ~22.9k miles, purchased December 2010 (some uneven wear, very pronounced on two of them IIRC)

    PM Mr Brownstone. He's the resident New England snow driving expert on the forum.

If someone could make a jacket of those three things it would no doubt be the most popular and prized item in all of your closets.

    That's why they're all seasons.
