As In subject, anyone have some decent tires sitting In garage?
My wife give me set of wrx rims as bday gift (30 upcoming saturday, 3rd may) and I am looking to get some rubber on them.
Was checking prices of new ones and I must say I need to start a saving account for it :-D
Anyone have some tires about which you forgot, sitting at garage and just taking space there? If answer is yes to those questions, let me know.
Thanks In advance guy for checking garage :)

What about 2 tires only, no rims? I might get two tires somewhere (easier than one only) and I have no need for 3 rims.

Fair play ian top man great to see this is why isdc is great karma on route :clap:
 
Ian big credit to you for giving me as bday present whole set, rims with tires plus two spare tyres. Karma for you. I will put your rims for craic. Wondering how my wagon is going to look with them on. Will post some photos tomoro.
Cheers
 
Ok, just quick update.
I went today to few Garages to make Wheels which I have from Ian fited to car. Spare tires which I got from you Ian are bad, so noone wanted fit them (some cracks on sides on rubber).
I got two tires from kmboost which passed Nct but same story, rubber too cracked on sides to be safe with them.
Happy day as rims look even better on day (colour is awesome) and defo I will use them, but unhappy as still I have no rubber to wear now.
So I want to bump subject, maybe someone have some tires on garage which are looking for new owner?
:bump2:
 
Post some pics man

Could be that garage just wants to sell u tires...

Most rubber after a few years cracks but is still safe...
 
Ok, I want 5th opinion. Do you know someone availalble on Saturday evening who would be able to have a look at them and help to make it work?
I believe that 3 out of 4 wheels which Ian gave me are ok. Rubber is cracked but not bad (it is only my opinion, no experience on tires at all). But to make it work I need 2 same type of tires on one axle and both spare sets (first from Ian and second from Kmboost) have one faulty or somehow not good tire.
My car is only 160bhp so there is no mad driving etc). Mich apreciated any help on it.
Would be Nice to show up tommorow with new set of rims.

No one will tell you any used tire will totaly safe in case something happened ull have to make the call urself if it were me id get too bugdet tires new and get em put on the wrx wheel up front(fronts do the most work) and the two best from the others to the rear then when u have funds get new rears and rotate them
 
I've an old pair of tires there you can have.

There budget and were on rear of the car for a year and done a track day with them.
Prob not much good in the wet but might suit you and your situation.

Rapid P690
About 3mm.

Thanks Markokavo for offer. I think I will go with Ciaran advice about getting two new tires for front and on back I will put one of those which I got from guys.
There is no point on rushing it.
It is time to celebrate my 30 so will be worried about tires In near future but today.
