Last year I purchased a tatty 18" rim with old tyre to be used in emergencies.
The tyre is borderline legal. We are off to DLRP Paris in 6 weeks, so am intending on taking it with me.
I would prefer to put a slightly better tyre on it, however I cannot justify £120 for a new one, which I hope will never get used, and part worn ones on ebay are a ridiculous price (look at this one - £90 and it only has 4mm of tread left, so over half used! http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/235-45-18-PIRELLI-P-ZERO-NERO-TYRE_W0QQitemZ280398179668QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_Ca rs_Tyres_RL?hash=item414908ad54&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14).
If anyone is purchasing new 18s and one of there existing tyres is okay (2 or more 3mm of tread), can I buy it from you at a sensible price?
Thanks,
Jim.
