WTB... 15" tyres

Post by Tonz Magonz »

I'm after 2x cheap used 15" tyres prefer something low profile like 165/50 or Formula Vee low profile racing tyres..
Fitting these to stock width wide 5 rims.

Don't need to be technically roadworthy...

Got some on 4.5" mangles at the moment if you need them.
I had my patience tested…….It is negative.

Need to compare them to the stuffed Form. Vee tyres I have

Are these Bridgestones any good to you? You are most welcome to have them
One has better tread than the other though
Overall diameter is 64cm

Just checked, the tyres I have are 165 45 r15. These are the same as the front tyres on your ute.
Let me know if you still want them.

Thanks to all for the offers to help.

The formula Vee Dunlops are approx. 540mm in diameter..

Looks like Johns will be the best bet..
