Hi guys,

I'm really not happy with the REO10s on my UK99 - not a patch on the Toyos I had before. So I'm thinking of bashing the old credit card again. Would anyone be interested in a set of RE010s with 5.5mm all round?

If they are of interest, whatever's on offer may help make my mind up when it comes to shelling out £400 or so for new Toyos!

Hmmm,

Seemed like a good idea at the time, but courier charges are the killer, it seems. Tried DHL (without knowing the weight of tyres) and they quoted £82.34 for up to 14Kg and £64 for up to 7Kg. Both probably exclude VAT...

I was hoping for around £25 a corner, but with courier charges, that makes them rather expensive, even with almost 6mm all round.

Ho hum.

Ho hum again - just out of curiosity, I tried a local courier in Hull and they quoted £15 + VAT for all 4 tyres! Talk about discrepancies!!!!

So, back in the game - anyone offer me £100 plus courier for these unwanted beasts?
