Mattle40 Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 Well I'm possibly in the market for Rays with tyres so give me a pm if ur selling. The tyres will degrade also. I wouldn't know how much/how fast tho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brummiestormer Posted March 26, 2015 Author Share Posted March 26, 2015 Thing is wheels are mint--Falkens 452s have only done around 4k so they would be a good buy if i took them off the rims--just can't make my mind up lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilogikal1 Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 Given that you want to keep the wheels, I'd just sell the tyres. Tyre lifespan in storage will depend on the conditions in which they're stored, but it theory anything up to 5 years as a rough guide. Why do you want to keep the wheels out of interest?

Brummiestormer Posted March 26, 2015 Author Share Posted March 26, 2015 Hardly a mark on them but am i being a bit possessive?--but i would definetly put them back on if i sold the car and sell the Vossens seperate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilogikal1 Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 If you've got the room to store them, what's the harm in keeping them? I'd definitely sell the tyres though if you have no intention of using them, assuming you're not planning on selling the car with they Rays on next month or anything.

DoogyRev Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 It it were me I would keep them and use them in the winter with some winter tyres fitted. . . . you will keep the salt and crap off your new ones then. If the tyres on them have decent tread, just sell them to fund the winter ones. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Bounty Bar Kid Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 7 years for tyres to degrade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mattle40 Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 I'd imagine £20 will get them off for you. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
