SOLD!! 4 x Winter Tyres 185/65 R15 : 7-8mm Tread : 6J x 15

Post by Bob » Tue Nov 06, 2018 11:19 pm

Set of 4 used Continental ContiWinterContact TS850 tyres.

7-8mm of tread remaining, having covered less than 2k miles.

Been stacked for the last couple of years in a warm dry cellar. Hoping someone can make use of these as the #062 is not likely to see salty winter roads again.


Tyres are currently mounted to a set of steel wheels, which are used but air tight and running straight and true. Mounting faces are all clean and rust free. Orange in the photos is copper grease.

Includes a set of 4 BMW wheel trims. Wheels/tyres were previously on an E36 328i Touring.


Wheel specs:

6J x 15 ET42

PCD 5 x 120


Cash on collection preferred, but would be happy for buyer to arrange courier at their own cost. Each wheel weighs around 17.5kg.

Hi Martin, I'm in OL3.

I have provisionally sold these though, expecting them to be collected tomorrow.

Thanks,
Bob

Better that someone gets some use from them, rather than languishing in the cellar for another winter.

I was concerned that at 15" they're pretty small these days and will be lacking potential applications.

Indeed.

I remember replacing 13" wheels on my Mk1 Golf GTI with 15s and thinking wow, they look huge!

How times change!
