OEM 224’s in gloss black with falken winter tyres £570 ovno

[Jembo]

Bought these on this earlier thread just for //M to sit on over winter & have been driven nowhere https://z4-forum.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=109087 ... & now with a set of CS/CSL’s are surplus even though love the dark look.

Paid £525 plus collection over bizzy lizzy bridge £5 & £40 fuel round trip, so owe me £570

I have PM’d Sohailnisar with first dibs as he was 2nd in earlier queue, otherwise if don’t hear anything by Wednesday it’s open season for a fab condition set of wheels... not 100% perfect but far better than 95% on most forecourts

Offers only on this thread please

Few pics on my //M

You can’t really add your costs Jem otherwise next time round the next seller would have them up at your price plus another £50.

Start lower get lowballed even further... where @ ovno I expect they’ll go for around what I paid.

Hi Jembo,

Where abouts are you based? I'd be happy to pay £550 + postage if there is enough meat on the tyres for this winter (pending Sohailnisar's first dibs of course).

Hi Beeacon, am near Brands Hatch in Kent - ME19 post code.

The tyres have lots of tread, alloys were only put on & car driven into garage... if you work on the basis of a minimum of 6mm on all tyres... you would be very happy as believe you will find there is more.

Subject to no reply from Sohailnisar by Wednesday & we can meet / sort out a courier, I accept your offer.

Jembo,

My apologies, I've just checked the offsets and they're the opposite way around to my E89, meaning they wouldn't fit I'm afraid
Someone else can take second dibs.

Was very tempted to get these from JaEdBa when I bought his coupe earlier this year...
They're in all round good condition!

Might come back to you if they don't sell over the next day or so...

I can do the £525, the rest of it will be put towards bribe money for my dad, petrol from Southampton and somebody local to you to take the old tyres off my knackered 108s so I can fit in the back of my dads Fiesta.

Everything I've read says they fit a 2003 E85 3.0i.

Let me know if it's any good.

 

[Jembo]

Thanks for all the interest,

- Beeacon: no probs
- Machpb: As you expressed interest, the highest bid is £525
- Spazmochad: if Sohailnisar’s not come back & there’s no higher bid than £525 by midnight this coming Saturday, they’re yours for £525 (I’ll need Saturday to swap them over so u could then collect Sunday)

 

[spazmochad]

OK, thanks that sounds fair to me

They’ll fit, got them on my 03

Why you taking the 108’s with you? Not sure they’ll all fit in a fiesta? Surely you’re better taking the wheels to a local tyre place? Or have I missed something? :?

Would ideally drive the car up to buy the wheels with Fiesta in tow. Swap the wheels over on my zed, go to a garage and get the tyres taken off the old wheels and shove all those in my dad's Fiesta. Think I could fit about 2 rims in the zed last time I tried and that was without tyres so no other way to keep the old rims without assistance. Desperately need new wheels as two are buckled and my rear tyres are just about gone so these would be perfect.

I’ve got an Mini R50 and brought x4 17” BMW Wheels home with that just fine. With tyres it’s the same as 18” but obviously just wider rears. If you can fold down the fiesta seats you can stick them in there and just sort out the wheels at home? Worth considering rather than hassle of convoy and garage?

Can't you just go up in the fiesta?

If Sunday... every tyre place (who may be open) will be ultra busy creaming money on new tyres - not sure how helpful they’d be.

However, I have 3 ton low lift jack, so if you wanted just to bring the Zed & a high tension strap.... I’d be happy to post a picture on the forum of our attempt to get 4 108’s in a Zed ;@)

Sohailnisar has reached out by PM.

Per original post, have asked him to post here on this thread by today (Wednesday 14th) confirming he both wants & can collect this weekend, otherwise remain as offered above.

 

[Sohailnisar]

You’re an absolute gentleman Jembo.

Thank you for offering me first refusal.
Gutted I couldn’t take these off you!

GLWTS! (not that you need it)
