... my set of mint 15" 23mm offset (early pre ABS offset) 7J wheels, perhaps there's another owner who wants them for their early Porsche 944 or 924.

They're in excellent condition, recently refurbished cos they're essentially mint, without any dents, cracks, or kerbing etc.

Here they are on my car - as you can see they're lovely jubbly:

The tyres are past their best but will remain fitted.

I'm after £200 for the set of 4 and will gladly ship 'em to a UK address.

Out of interest how much do tyres cost for these? I've been looking up prices for new tyres on my Fuchs and the rear ones cost nearly £100 for one average tyre.

Was toying with the idea of a set of cookie cutters or teledials to use for any activities that may require extra tyre wear.

eTyres have 195/65R15 Perelli P6000 tyres for £62 each fitted last time I looked.

Ummm ditch finders! This is the problem with 15" wheels poor choice of tyres & expensive for what is available. this is why most people end up on 16"wheels.

I was looking at things like a set of 16" Team Dynamics or Compomotive wheels but a set of Teledials would work out much much cheaper.

I notice you can get 15" Uniroyal Rainsport 2 for as little as £50

http://www.tyres-pneus-online.co.uk/car-tyres/UNIROYAL/RAINSPORT,2/#Liste_pneus

I have 16" on my S2, great tyre with lots of grip.

Sadly there's nothing on there matching the size needed.

I had Dunlop Fast Response 195/65/15 on my tele's and they were excellent, around £45 from tyretraders.com
(see tyretest.com for reviews)

I've had a couple pm's about the condition of the tyres. So here's some pics - I'm no tyre expert but the first one was an advisory on my MOT. How "bad" they are is anybodies guess but none of them lose air and they don't shake at any speed. You never know with resellers if they're just trying to get you to buy a new set of tyres by scaring you into the deal...

The two worst:

Others:

Please remember I'm selling the Alloys - ie the tyres happen to be fitted. I don't want any "you sold me bad tyres" feedback.

The Alloys are excellent and I'm asking the equivalent of £50 each for the set. That's a bargain.

Ummm sidewall cracks don't look good. What date are the tyres? It is marked in a circle as week & year. If they are over 5-6 years old then it's bin time in my mind. P6000s are hardish to start with, age hardening ain't going to improve things!

On the second picture you can just about see the date mark. Looks like 2002 to me but it's so cracked it's only fit for the bin.

Last two don't look anywhere near as bad but then it's hard to tell from a picture.

I was going to add that these are a good buy at £200 irrespective of the tyres condition.
