If you read the entire thread you would notice that i bought these because my tyres were on the markers on the other alloys.

185 for 4x16'' oz alloys with at least 10k miles worth of tread left or 220 for 4x195/45/15 tyres on my other wheels.

Seeing as i more than likely wont have this car in 10k miles time it seemed the logical and most cost effective choice.

jesus wept, people don't read things do they

i needed new tyres, saw these going cheap on ebay and won them for 185 quid. i could sell them on for 150 easy as they are nice wheels and quite sought after.

that means once i've used the tyres they would've cost me 35 quid whereas a new set of tyres all round will cost £220.

new tyres are not something i can just wait and wait for. they were on the limit and these came up at just the right time.

i know it's not low, i even said it in the first post. it wouldn't fit my needs being low right now. it's a wagon thats gets me to work and back and allows me to put turf/wood/whatever other shit i get from b&q in the back without having to worry about ruining the fiesta.

i would like a decent motor and i will get one, but right now i have other needs and would not like to put loads of shit into the back of a decent car.
