I have four absolutely brand spanking new 195/45/16 Rainsport 1’s for sale.  They were bought and delivered ready for the winter weather in which they hold there own. Unfortunately I sold the Corsa a month or so ago and now have an Astra Coupe on which they wont fit.   
 
  
 
 
I would like around £175ono for all four and the buyer preferably able to collect or maybe meet half way. 
 
 
Not a bad price when you consider I've just paid £110 for one tyre on the astra

Postage using a different firm would be less. 
 
If you used the postoffice standard parcel service, you can post up to 30kg for £10.76 - 4 195/45/16's are less than 30kg I would imagine? 
 
I would offer £140 inc postage

There 7KG each so just under 30KG in total. Thx mate Ill keep that in mind. But im not going to accept £140 and I pay the postage. Its not a bad offer but im gonna hold out for more. I paid a lot more for them and there brand new.

How much did you pay as a matter of interest? I know they arnt shite tyres, if they were for my own car i'd offer more, I really would be buying them to stick on some Rotas im selling. 
 
Whats the best price you can do? PM me and i'll have a think about it. 
 
If they were 205/45's id bite your hand off!

Just becouse there so good in the wet, dosent mean there no good in the dry! They have bags of grip no matter what the weather, there a performance tyre!    Thing is, accidents genrally happen in poor weather conditions, so it makes sence to buy the best tyres for that senario, and these are those tyres! Besides, when dosent it rain in manchester? The should change the slogan from "The rain tyre" to "The manchester tyre"

I dunno about the wear to Be honest mate. I could tell you there good, but as ive not used these tyres befor I honestly dont know. I would put money on them lasting longer than your usual cheep ass yokohomas or toyo's but i cant tell you anymore. Sorry. The guy who bought them on Ebay is being a bit slow so i will consider your offer carefully.
