2 x 255/50/19 Michelin Diamaris used tires mounted for $200

My front tires got punctured yesterday. The front tires had to be changed pretty soon anyway as they only had about 3/32 thread depth remaining. The rears got replaced 18months ago and are in very good condition. Anyway, all of that to say that I found a place in downtown Raleigh today where I got 2 used 255/50/19 Michelin Diamaris with a depth thread of 7/32, mounted and balanced for $200 taxes included and with a 30 days money back guaranty!! I inspected the tires before they mounted them they looked in good shape. No cupping nor any apparent damage. When I left the place I tested the tires on the highway up to 100mph and they are perfect. Absolutely no vibration at any speed. I saved myself probably more than $400 compared to brand new ones.

I was gonna laugh if you paid $200 to mount your tires, like your title states! But thats a great price!
