Hi, Guest
For those who want to know...
I ended up with a lightly-used set (1200kms) of Pirelli P6s. I almost didn't get them except for a glowing review from a RSX owner in the same shop at the same point in time who had just retired his set after two years of 3-season driving with them.
I also snagged a full set of 05/06 Focus 5-spoke 16" alloys with them.
Apparently the previous owner bought a new Focus hatch, drove it for a month, and then traded "up" to a set of 17" Motegis and unknown rubber, maybe Goodyear. The rims are pristine with one small scratch across one spoke on a rim. Nothing huge.
Total cost? $747.50 after taxes, free install.
So now the question beggars, "how soon do I transfer them to the S2 rims?"
Better yet, do I perform an act of sacrilege and not do it at all?
