So, im selling my brother my team dynamics, but im looking to drive to newcastle (100miles) and back, to pick up some new ones 1st (before he pays me)

So, he says he is not buying them, because they will get worn out on that 200mile round trip.

Is he wrong? I think he is!

Tell him to study them before you go and then again when you come back and unless you drive over glass fields or do wheel spins everywhere they will be fine.

How long do those tyres normally last in milage?

Say for example 10,000 miles

Divide that by 100 = 100.

100 x2 = 2%

So give him a 2% discount on whatever you're selling the wheels for - and make sure you lockup and wheelspin as much as you can on the way back
