SSM Picnic - Swap Meet

[red]

I have a few things lying around that I don't need anymore. Not up to shipping, but I wouldn't mind bringing some with me to the picnic. For now, I'm listing the tires, but may post up more items later. Price is below or make me an offer with something not listed in my profile. Anyone else planning to bring parts?

(2) 295/45VR18 Hankook Ventus ST RH06 (http://www.hankooktireusa.com/product/tire_detail.asp?pid=169) - $150

*The tires have are at about half tread and were on the car for 6 months. I'll look up the number of miles if anyone is interested. Here are pictures of them on stock rims.

These are very tempting if you are bringing them. Did they rub at all while on the stock wheels?

None that I know of. I never heard noises, and the inside of the tires and the shocks showed no evidence of rubbing. The tire sidewalls are a bit squishy on stock rims, so not ideal for autocrossing, but they give you a great contact patch otherwise.

[RoyLPita]

I don't autocross so that may help me out. What tire pressure did you have them set at?

I kept these tires at 36lbs. When I bought them, the installers inflated them to just over 40lbs, which was likely intended to keep the sidewall stiffer. At stock pressures, the had some squish, which helped launching. For daily or highway driving, you'd probably want them higher. Nice thing, as others have mentioned about these tires, is that they have excellent wear (and they wear evenly).

I have my stock manifolds, gaskets, catalytic converters, and rear 02 sensors. If anyone is in need of these parts, please make an offer. I know the worth of the converters and will scrap them myself otherwise.

I had those for a while up for sale and had a nibble here and there but no one serious, so when I moved I chucked them. That's when someone had a serious need for them, but they also wanted the OEM tips & mufflers, and I ain't partin with the tips.

[piglit50]

is it 150 for the tires and rims or just tires??? i am very interested in this deal!!

[RoyLPita]

I believe I have 1st dibs.

$150 for the tires only. Unfortunately, the rims are not for sale. RoyLPita has dibs on the tires, but if for whatever reason he decides not to purchase them, you're next in line!

Thanks for the warning. Was hoping someone that would be attending the picnic had use for them. I guess I'll try the 'parts for sale' forum, and otherwise, I sell them for scrap.

I have two (never used) battery backup sirens that can be added to any existing alarm system. If someone cuts your horn or siren wire, the battery backup siren continues wailing and can only be shut off with a key. I bought these a few years back for my previous cars and never got around to installing them. The alarm I had installed on the Marauder came with one, so I don't have a use for them. I paid $30 each (equivalents go for $25-$35 on ebay) and will sell for $20 each (firm), plus no delivery since you can pick them up at the picnic.<table><tr><td><a target="_blank" href="http://www.mercurymarauder.net/showcase/files/4/2/7/5/battery_siren-front.jpg">Battery Backup Siren (Front)<br><img width="288" height="384" src="http://www.mercurymarauder.net/showcase/files/4/2/7/5/battery_siren-front.jpg"></a></td><br />

Hey Brian,
If somebody says they'll take it all how in the world are you gonna fit all that in you car? ;)

Don't mind me, I'm just trying to get another flag.lol

[RoyLPita]

When there is a will, there is a way. For now, I only have some items to bring up.

[jimlam56]

I have a stock trans pan for free if anyone wants it. Say the word, and i'll bring it down.

[JMan]

I have a new, in the box, unused Diablosport Predator tuner for the MM. As I recall it also will program many of the Mustangs as well. $300.00

They won't rub, but the SW is squishy cuz they are too big for the 8" rim. These should be mounted on widened rims.

No, Brian. When there is a will, there's a greedy relative!

[magindat]

You guys should just bring what you can and leave it on display in front of your car!!!

[Blackmobile]

:laugh::laugh:I know that's right

DR has been selling these tires for stock rims and is using them on his car. Tire Kingdom mounted and balanced them without a problem, inflating them to a higher PSI in order to stiffen the sidewalls. I kept them at stock pressure, making them more squishy, which helped with launches.

There on stock rims on my car and they drive fine in the rain

[magindat]

I know. I've seen them and ridden in the car with them. I'm just sayin the specs call for a 9.5-11" rim.

Conventional wisdom is that a tire too narrow for the rim results in a twitchy hard ride with rail handling and a tire too wide for the rim results in a softer ride with reduced handling.

I provided the manufacturer link in my original post and already stated that the sidewalls are squishier on the stock rim. They are not autocrossing tires, but between the softer sidewall and increased contact patch, they make for good launches.
