So, after a great (nearly) 6 years of owning my Coupe, it had to go to make way for a more sensible car for increased work mileage. Sad to end this era, but the up side for you guys is the opportunity to buy a superb set of Winter Wheels and Tyres!
Don't waste your time and money swapping tyres on and off of your summer wheels, risking fitting damage and winter road damage, buy these instead!
So, we have the following:
4 x 17" Genuine BMW Style 103 Wheels that have been fully refurbished by The Wheel Specialist whilst I've head them. There is NO kerbing damage whatsoever on any of the wheels.
Refinished in a glass Gun Metal Grey, the look so much cleaner for longer and add a nice contrast to the usual bright silver.
There is a starting of some slight under surface corrosion (predominantly on 1 wheel), which I’ve tried to capture the best I can in the pictures, but no sign of any loss of surface.
Tyres:
These are fantastic tyres! Just search for some online reviews, and Auto Express ratings. I originally had Vredestein Wintrac and to be honest they seemed less useful in the winter than my Summer Michelins!
Continental WinterContact TS860 x 2 225/45 R17 V Rated XL – Bought and fitted 09/12/16, and removed 01/04/17 with just over 1300 miles on them.
These are currently c.£120 each supply only
7mm+ - see photos
Continental WinterContact TS850 x 2 225/45 R17 V Rated XL – Bought and first fitted 16/12/13 with just over 7k (very gentle) miles on them.
These are currently c.£120 each supply only
7mm++ (nearly full 8mm as new) – see photos
Looking for a collection sale, due to difficulty shipping (packing safely for transport), but you are welcome to organise your own courier at your cost, however, much prefer local pickup, or I could potentially deliver in Derby / Nottingham / Burton areas for mileage cost.
Looking for £650 cash on collection or bank transfer, otherwise these will be heading for ebay….
So, c.£480 worth of tyres, and an excellent quality set genuine of refurbished alloys for £170…
Any questions please ask.
