Default Wanted: Pirelli Sottozero II 245/45R18 - just one, maybe two!

Long shot I know, but I'm trying to 100% regularise my winter tyres.
Ideally I'm after a single Pirelli Sottozero II (2) 245/45R18 with decent tread (6mm or more?).

Definitely NOT a run-flat which is all I can find online and if you have a pair I'd think about it and negotiate hard.

I don't think these are made any more and can't find any stock.

e.g. Cruise control, NavPlus/TV, Bose, GSM, Xenons, Solar roof, Parking sensors, Alcantara/leather everywhere of course. (internal dimming mirror added later)

And before that a lot of Rover 800s, a few oddities, a lovely Triumph Dolomite 1850HL with Overdrive and way back in my schooldays an Austin Seven aka Mini 850!

I bought 4 of these tyres in 17" from Audi Peterborough on Friday through their eBay shop. Would be worth giving them a call to ask if they have any 18" for sale.

Could you post or pm a link to the shop please, I can't find it.
(Will probably be in Peterborough in a few days time so could pick up)

They aren't listing any for sale but it's always worth a call. I paid just under £200.00 plus postage for 4 tyres

If you call them I was dealing with Jez who seemed like a knowledgeable chap

Thanks for the link, a search for shops on ebay didn't bring that up. Weird.

Thanks for the tip, I called them but they've shifted almost everything and have nothing in 18" anyway.

So, still looking..........

I've checked with Nasser @ DM tyres for you - he has none of these in at the moment, but will let me know if one comes in on his next delivery (he's sourcing me a set of winters at the moment…)

Was worth a try, good luck with the hunt


My 17" tyres arrived today, bit odd really buying tyres for a Mercedes from an Audi dealer
