andygore Posted September 1, 2014 Posted September 1, 2014 Hi guys, I'm having a garage clear out and after selling my zed I still have the old Track day wheels and tyres I used. They are standard 18 inch 350z alloys with Toyo R888 tyres on them. These in my opinion are the best track day tyres you can get. just the tyres alone took almost 8 seconds off my time around Oulton Park. The two front tyres are 235/40ZR18 91Y, the rears are 255/35/ZR18 94Y. I have used these for 3 trackdays now and they still have 2.-3mm of tread left on each tyre. I will get the exact measurements tonight and update. One of the tyres has a puncture repair which happened when they were brand new some numpty in the pits left some bits on the floor and I ran over this. Since the repair I have done 3 trackdays and this has not been an issue at all. The wheels are balanced and ready to go so if anyone is in to doing trackdays this are the perfect tyre to use. I am looking for £400 + £50 postage or these can be collected from the Warrington area, alternatively you can arrange postage yourself. Please let me know if you have any queries. Cheers
andygore Posted September 8, 2014 Author Posted September 8, 2014 I'm open to sensible offers? I want to avoid putting them on eBay.
andygore Posted September 11, 2014 Author Posted September 11, 2014 These must be worth something to someone! I just need them out of the way now, £300 posted ono?
Neilp Posted September 12, 2014 Posted September 12, 2014 Honestly, the wheels aren't worth more than 100 for the set, 2nd hand tyres with probably 1 or 2 days left in them aren't worth £200 imo.
andygore Posted September 12, 2014 Author Posted September 12, 2014 £200 then!? I just want rid without the hassle of putting them on eBay. Surely someone on here does track days?
Neilp Posted September 12, 2014 Posted September 12, 2014 probs better taking them off the rims to be honest mate. You would get ok money for the tyres themselves. Wait till winter and sell the rims as winter wheels.
hensh65 Posted September 12, 2014 Posted September 12, 2014 As Neil said no one really uses those alloys for track as they're made with cement. The drifters would use them but the tyres aren't ideal for drifting. Might get a bite at £200. 2
brillomaster Posted September 12, 2014 Posted September 12, 2014 if you can separate wheels from tyres we might have the tyres off you since we need a decent set of tyres for the track beemer. unfortunately don't have any need for the wheels though!
Jmanji Posted September 20, 2014 Posted September 20, 2014 As I'm on a budget to get my zed on track I'll take them for £160 posted? You did say you want rid? Let me know as there is another set I'm looking at.

Steve.M Posted November 18, 2014 Posted November 18, 2014 Long shot but just bought a Z and joined the forum, if still for sale I will give you £200 posted. Cheers
