Bit of a long shot in this forum given the size, but you never know what people are after..... 8)

Two nearly new Bridgestone RE050A tyres, purchased in early 2014. Please note that these are 100W XL rated.
Cost new about £140 each (inc VAT) back in February 2014, though I think they're a bit less now (Pound vs Euro).
Date code on both is 4213 if I read the right panel.

Little used and spare as a result of swapping my S8 to 20" FE wheels for this summer. Have ONLY been used for the summer 2014 season (Apr-Nov), so maybe 3000 miles max as this is not my daily - high days and holidays only.
Borrowed a simple tyre gauge and measured both in several places. Consistently well over 6mm but just below 7mm.
Not an electronic one to give finer detail, but assume 6.5mm give or take.

Looking for £120 for the pair, collected from South Bucks near M25/M40.

Having just seen a post in the S4 (B8) area saying that they are running this size tyre on an S4, this is a reminder that these are still sitting in my garage. :bigblink:

Just a reminder, these are still available.
I will be at AITP on Sunday, fairly early, so can bring them along if someone is DEFINITELY interested. I'll probably be around the AudiSRS stand, ask Graham (who will be there and knows me) if you can't find me and my S8!

I'm leaving around lunchtime and going on to help clear the house of a deceased relative and obviously don't want them taking up space in the car needlessly, so won't be bringing them "on the off chance". Please PM me if you are interested.

Provisionally sold to someone on another Audi forum; just arranging delivery via a mate who is passing near the buyer. 8)

The full set of five refurbished S8 Avus wheels are still available though, see: viewtopic.php?f=64&t=116066

Tyres now sold, going onto an A6 I believe.

A little bird tells me these have also been seen on an S2 forum which is odd as I'm not on there and they are in my garage not with the person who has "borrowed" my pictures..... :FIREdevil:
