I have 4x unused 165/80R15 tyres with the little rubber knobbles still on. Thing is though, they're probably 25 years old. They came on (are still on) 4x Porsche 944 spare wheels I bought. They've been stored inside a car all their lives so there's no cracking on the rubber/UV deterioration/weathering.

Any use to you? Laois area...

That's ok, I'm not in a hurry, let me know when you're ready.
If you know of anyone that can bring them to Cork for me it would be great.

I could probably get them as far as Adare, Co. Limerick for you easily enough, more than half way between you and me.

My soninlaw does a regular Cork/Dublin run,he might meet you near the motorway sometime, he can't go too far off his route as they have trackers on the trucks.
Let me know if this suits

the devil on my shoulder reminded me of some issues with old tyres, even if they're "new" like these.

Deekaboo, watch this and then it's your call if you want the tyres or not...



if you'd rather plump for new tyres, check the prices here: www.eiretyres.com and here: www.camskill.co.uk then go to your local tyre dealer and use those prices to get a good deal on the set.

can't say fairer than that :)

At 25yrs old they may not be the safest, so I think I'll pass on these, sorry for any inconvenience, thanks again.
