Hi Guys,
Been a little while since I've been on here having sold my Z a few years back :cry:
However winter is coming, and having had first hand experience of a slippy Z in light snow I thought of you guys when my colleague decided to sell the 19" winter rubber that he ran on his R32.
Size is 235-35-19 so for those with lovely 19" CSL's they'd fit perfectly on the fronts (8.5Jx19), but may be a little thin for the rears I'm not sure.

Anyway, I hope you're all well and if anyone is interested reply to me and I'll pass you through.

Here's a copy of his post on the R32OC board...

With winter upon us I have for sale a set of 4 Vredestein Wintrac Extreme tyres, size 235/35/19. These are the best fit you can get for 19x8" rims as Vredestein annoyingly don't do these tyres in 225 size. All tyres are in great condition with ~5mm tread left and are fully Mud and Snow certified.

I took the R to Germany over winter with these fitted and they were faultless - amazing grip and traction on even the worst affected roads. The biggest benefit of these tyres is the vast improvement stopping distance; in cold conditions stopping distances are massively reduced - critical if you need to stop in a hurry :afraid:

New these tyres cost £180 - £200 each depending where you get them from, meaning a set of 4 would cost £720 - £800. Therefore I think a reasonable price for these is £300 + shipping - I can arrange a courier for £25 or you can arrange your own, or obviously you're welcome to come and collect them from Oxfordshire if you prefer.

Cheers!
