Vredestein Wintrac tyres for sale. Now SOLD

Post by MartWilliams » Fri Jan 11, 2013 10:48 am

I keep meaning to put these up for sale since I've sold the old beast a few months ago.

I have 2 brand new Vredestein Wintrac 255/35 R19 96W tyres purchased about 6 months ago, but never fitted to anything. Looking for £150 per tyre plus delivery.

I also have the old set of Vred Wintracs that came off the car. 2 have 5mm left and 2 have 6mm left, one of these tyes has uneven wear on the left shoulder though so while it is still legal it is something you'd probably want to change with another part worn at some point, there were no problems at all while it was on the car. So I'd do this whole set for £200 plus delivery (1 new tyre is about £200 so this gives you a set to get through the winter on for a lot less money!)

I'm based in Coventry if you want to collect in person.

Best regards

Mart

Vredestein Wintrac Xtreme are superb tyres, another thumbs up for them! :thumbs:

Sorry to hear the Misano missile has departed. Wasn't plate ending TWJ or TWK per chance?

Cheers for the vote of confidence in these tyres guys. I bought them partly because they were the number 1 choice from other RS6 owners here on the board and because of the great reviews online.

I found them to be stunning, phenomenal grip in the cold and snowy conditions.

I've looked at postage costs and the best I've found so far is £15 per pair of tyres.

Snow is coming!! Get these tyres and be king of the snow!

With these on, I laughed in the face of the worst that Scotland could throw at me on my winter trips up there :bowdown:

How would tyres help you from irrational hatred of the English?
Daytona RS6 C5 Avant. Viper'd, Billies, Waggers, MTM box brain, C6 stoppers, xcarlink, R8 coolant cap (woohoo)
///M3 E46 | XC90 (V8, natch) | Passat GTE | RR Classic V8 flapper

It's times like these that I really miss the old beast, these conditions would be nothing to it. Were hoping to get out to some hills tomorrow to go walk in the snow, but it might be risky with my current car with only 2 wheels to drive it and not even on snow tyres :cry:
