Selling 5 year old 365 tires?
Anyone else consider selling their low mileage 365s? My thoughts are sell them now before they age out and hopefully get 1/3 to 1/2 the new value and replace while convenient vs side of road.
I’ve got about 5,000 miles on these with a date code of 4318
Any suggestions where to list them?

Why would you think anyone would want to buy used tires that are pushing 5 years old at this point? I sure as hell would not, and I bet most others wouldn’t either. I get rid of mine at about that time, not buy them at that age.

5 years is not that bad, I think you will find someone that is interested.

I’ve got them listed on craigslist
I’ve heard some fleets will buy them wear them out and retread for another go round. Just need to find the right person.
Will see what happens.

I am sure if the price is right a buyer will appear.

It might be hard to find a buyer for 5 year old steer tires. I have a deal with a buddy to sell my 315’s for the lift axle on his dump truck. I’m not expecting to get much for them. If I don’t have to pay $40-50 disposal on each one, and it helps him out, I’m happy.

I listed all 8 of my 10 year old tires on facebook. Someone purchased them. I was able to buy one new tire with my money.

Sold my 315’s 10 year old 200 a piece Dump truck and loggers jump at it as they destroy tires frequently in off road situations

Keep one as spare. I do.

It may be more difficult to find an interested buyer than for a 315 user, because the 365s us a 10.5″ wheel (versus 90″). They do have a 7 year warranty, if that gives you peace of mind.

Question for pmeisenh – You mentioned in a prior posting the Multi Z might be good for those who wore out their drive tires because they have some extra tread depth. However the data sheet for these tire shows under the heading “Suitable for RV” = NO
Do you know why Michelin says “NO” for RV for this tire? Tread pattern > noise? All the load and speed ratings seem same as the X Line Energy Z.
