Two tires, still good. They are high performance, low profile tires. One has about 5.5mm (7/32") tread left, never had a flat or been damaged. The other is a bit more worn, but still useable or could make a good spare. These were mounted on 7.5 inch wide rims on a car I bought used, and I decided the tires were too narrow for the rims on the car. These tires will fit rims as narrow as 5.5 inches (see more details below). So, when two of the tires wore out, I upgraded all the tires on my car to a different size, so these two remaining tires will no longer serve as e.g. spares for me. But maybe they will be helpful to you! It would be a shame to throw them out.

(Note below about sizing, per internet AI search for a 205/xx width tire)
---
The ideal rim width for a 205mm wide tire (such as 205/55R16) is 6.5 to 7.0 inches. While 6.5 inches is typically considered the optimal, direct fit for performance and comfort, a range of 5.5 to 7.5 inches is generally acceptable, with 7.5 inches providing a slight "stretch" fit.
Key Considerations for 205/xxRxx Tires:
Optimal Width: 6.5" to 7.0"
Acceptable Range: 5.5" to 7.5"
Performance: A 7.0" or 7.5" rim offers better handling, while a 5.5" or 6.0" rim provides a more comfortable, cushioned ride with more sidewall protection.

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 uniquely human message!!
