Hi all.
Decided I am definately going to go back to original 13" rims. Decent tyres for the 15"s will cost more than I'm willing to spend considering the type of driving I'll be doing over the next 10 months.
Plus I'm looking for less attention considering the shady areas I'll be parking.
So that means that charlotte's sexy 15" rims are for sale. All in VGC, only a few small chips and no real gutter rash.
Tyres are 195/45 nexan N2000. Same/similar tread to goodyear eagle f1. This rubber is pretty decent as far as the cheap rubber brands go but as they're more of a long-lasting compound. They've got enough traction for a micra no whiteline suspension goods, but add some swaybars and you start to feel the suspension's abilities match/exceed the tyres. Although, i could be just a bad driver... Once they have some heat in them they seem pretty good.
Wet weather performance is pretty damn good for a 6" wide directional.
There's enough tread on these tyres to get you another 10,000km at least. I was budgeting on replacing them in 15,000km (i'll be doing 90% highway driving, highway driving at 40km/hr bumper to bumper traffic that is). Tyres are still structurally sound, no eggs, cracks, scrubs, etc.
Looking for around $600 at this stage. Keep in mind these rims are valued brand new at $220 each.
Cheers
