......for my winter tyres.....

sticking an advert on Ebay ...that I'll just keep repeating until they're sold!

Vredestein Wintrac Extremes 235x35x19s.....each tyre has still between 6-7mm.....new tyres are 8mm. No patches/damage.

I paid £660 for them and they're currently on mytyres for £590.

I thought about £300 was reasonable???

Off Figo. Could be open to reasonable offers for folk off the foum. They really are like new. Garage dependant, its about £50-60 to swap them.
If I could get shot of them before the winter it'll free up space (and contribute to buying) my little diddy MINI ones

Steve's also advertising them on the FFRS forum. They're the exact match for the RS. He got £270 for his and they were in a worse state. They're are so many RSs up here, hopefully someone might bite.

Free delivery in the 'shire!!!!!

Is that price for all four Tyres?

 

[Anonymous]

Yep

Pitch the price too high and no-one will want them.

Not sure how much P&P would be though!

Scrap that I was looking for 235/40/19's. Those are a different size to mine. Thanks anyway!

But my summers are 40s too. I was horrified at the prices for 40 winter tyres, so hence why I dropped to 35s. I think 40s (at the time) were something like £220+ each and the 35s were nearer £165. Difference in handling was negligble and because they were smaller they speedo was out 'favourably'. I think I found a website that calculated that 70mph speedo would have been 68mph GPS.

....and although I declared it to the insurance every time I swapped, they just put a note on my file that I used seasonal tyres and even though they were different profile, it cost me nothing as it was classed as a safety enhancement.

I've been offered £250 but I think if I've to meet the geezer with them about 50 miles away, I might push for £275 (for pertrol!). Sound reasonable?

No-one on here after them before I give him an answer?

£275 sounds reasonable to me. When I picked my new alloys up, the guy met me at a Service area. I offered him petrol money but he wouldn't take it. It was very nice of him but I think it's only to be expected to pay a little more if it's going to be costing you petrol to meet him.
