Tyres and or Alloys
 
Bit a long shot but you never know so it's worth asking.

I'm after two 255/45/18 tyres or 4 alloys with legal tyres, equal to the price of two new tyres.

I said it was a long shot lol

I think I've got a couple of spare 18"s in the garage, but pretty sure they're 245/45, not 255/45s. They were for my winter wheels before I got proper winter compound/treads. Probably not matching though - I think one is a Michelin, and one a Dunlop, can check in the morning if you're interested.

Hi Mate, I've got a guy locally who has a tyre business and he charges me £82 for brand new unbranded 245/35/20's which is an exceptional price for the size of tyre. If you would like me to check with him his best price on two tyres for you, then I can always bring them up with me when I see you next +++ (hopefully shouldn't be long)

Regards, Mark.

Thanks Tintin,
I'm not that bothered about makes, just no ditch diggers really.
I don't want to have mismatching sizes.

Thanks for the offer though.

If this is for an A8 255/45/18 is the wrong size, they should be 245/45/18

ScottD3 26th August 2014 07:53 AM

255/45/18 is the correct size for D3... 245/45/18 is the correct size for D2.

Thanks for confirming.

I've been trying to find pictures of my tyres to double check. lol

Isn't the tyre size and pressure data on the inside of the fuel filler flap?

ScottD3 26th August 2014 09:46 AM
