A little pricy for used tires. Try looking here.

these tires are a good price and perform just fine.

I don't know of an organized place to get used tires. However, I just ordered a set of 4 Yokohama Intermediate AVS (160 Treadwear, Traction: A, Temperature: A) from TireRack.com Yokohama has discontinued these tires, so they are on sale for $77 each.

These are excellent street tires and I plan to use them also for autocross and track days... $348 delivered to my house.

The nearest size was 245/45-16. These are about 4% smaller in diameter than the stock size. This means when the speedometer reads 52mph, you'll actually be going 50 mph. No biggie.

I bought a set of the GSC's last summer. The only reason they are classified as used is because they mounted them, drove the car on the trailer, drove the car off the trailer an into the shop. They had the little "fuzzies" all over them.

A good tire for the price, I really liked the way they handled in the wet.

Ouch. Goodyear Eagle GSC's? I had a set of them on my IROC and they hydroplaned horribly.
