I live 50 miles Northwest of Chicago and they must be picked up. I have 4 Dunlop Wintersports mounted on 16" Konig Reign wheels. They were used sparingly as i seldom drove in the snow.


I'd like $200 for the set & I'll throw in 350 pounds of sandbags. :)








PM me if interested.

I'm curious, do Winter tires and some weight in the trunk make a big differnce of the Mark? I was thinking about buying some this Winter.

They did for me. The difference between me getting up my driveway or not when it was snow covered. I didn't really use them a lot, just when my wife needed to go somewhere in the Subaru and I had to maybe watch the grand kids or something.

Too bad you're not closer. :)

I can say that when I got the tires from Mark, it made a HUGE difference. I didn't go out today because Hubby hasn't changed tires for me yet on my car, otherwise I'd grab these. And we do get our streets plowed fairly quickly, but sometimes you just can't wait, or they can't keep up....

Winter tires work so well you do not need sand. Although it helps.

I second this! We used to run Michelin Alpins on my wife's Mustang and I couldn't believe how good the car was in the snow. Performance winter tires like the WinterSports and the Alpins give up some snow traction for dry weather performance but I swear the Mustang was better in the snow than my Explorer with All-Seasons on it. It was the first car I ever ran snows on and since then I swear by them!

3rded. If you ever plan to run your Mark in the snow, you should jump on these. A night and day difference. I always ran General Altimax snows (studdable!!) on all four wheels of the old Town Car.. That car would go through anything. I took it out for a drive "for fun" during the last major snowstorm. Everyplace was closed except Buffalo Wild Wings. There were only 8-10 /big/ 4X4 trucks in the lot, and my lowly Town Car. It felt pretty good.
