Free: 205/40 ZR17 M+S UHP tire still good (Charlottesville near chs) High performance, low profile tire with about 5.5mm (7/32") tread left, never had a flat or been damaged. This was mounted on 7.5 inch wide rims (rim a bit too wide for the tire). It should fit rims as narrow as 6.5 inches. I upgraded the tires on my car to a different size, so this will no longer serve as a e.g. a spare for me. But maybe it will be helpful to you! I also have a second tire, same size - the second tire is closer to worn out - come get both! ******************************NOTE: Please don't be offended, but I ignore replies that look like they were generated by automatic internet robots ("bots"). What does an automated robot reply look like to me? Bots reply like this: "do you still have" (Incomplete sentence! No punctuation! No reference to the item offered!) Real people reply like this: "Hi my name is Marty. I have an interest in knitting, so I could really use the extra yarn you're giving away. I live quite close to you north of Charlottesville, and I could pick up any weekday evening. My favorite book is His Master’s Voice, by Stanislaw Lem. Many thanks for considering my inquiry!" Thank you, and looking forward to your message!!

Free: three different quarts ATF (NOS) (Charlottesville near chs) Here are three quarts, new old stock, different kinds of automatic transmission fluid. One for Ford/Mercury cars, one for Hondas, another for ? "Type A" (any car that's not a Ford or a Honda?) If you know what type A is for, please let us know? We haven't had an auto trans. car in nearly a decade, these fluids are going to waste here... ******************************NOTE: Please don't be offended, but I ignore replies that look like they were generated by automatic internet robots ("bots"). I've been getting lots of those lately. I have no idea if all those robot-like replies are from bots. Maybe they are just from real people who are too tired to type more than four words? What does an automated robot reply look like to me? They don't mention any interest in, or name the actual item. They don't mention any other concern related to the actual item. They don't mention what your location is, or when you might pick up. They don’t mention the current weather, or what might be your favorite book. Bots reply like this: "do you still have" (Incomplete sentence! No punctuation! Jeez...) Real people reply like this: "Hi my name is Marty. I have an interest in knitting, so I could really use the extra yarn you're giving away. I live quite close to you north of Charlottesville, and I could pick up any weekday evening. My favorite book is His Master’s Voice, by Stanislaw Lem. Many thanks for considering my inquiry." Think: I'm making the effort to post (with pictures!) on this free-cycle bulletin board. Then I make the effort to correspond with the recipient and make arrangements for pickup. I do all this, though by far the easiest thing is to just throw the thing out. If you like the idea of me not throwing it out, instead giving it to you, then honor my effort by replying with several complete sentences describing your situation and interest. Additionally, a reply that suggests to me that you might be reliable enough to actually pull through with a pickup, so these are the types of replies that I'm going to pay attention to. (And if you are new to the English language, and you're not very good at it, that’s okay; you can still write something that isn’t going to look like it was generated by a robot). Thank you, and looking forward to your creative human-like writing!!”
