Just checked again & noticed they are close to me - then the seller - it's Lee Clarke - good guy - but I know him - so better get a second opinion

Try MD Couriers - may save you money rather than driving to collect -

For some reason I just re-read the listing again - the tyre size is (slightly) wrong.

No worries I have just bought them, it was the alloys I really wanted, when you say negligible could you expand on that and if worse comes to worse I could always sell the tyres . I have wrangler 255 55 19 on at the moment so going to use them for the winter and put the new alloys on for summer is that ok ? |

I wouldn't worry your speedo will be out slightly but the 55 profile will give you a more comfortable ride Present :2008 TDV8 HSE

Don't forget - You want your spare to be the same size |

Great alloys and suspect tyre size is a typo.

Yes was thinking about the spare will get a one off 20inch when I switch over. Thanks for the info re the suspected typo and that Pirelli don't make 255 55 20 .I've not had time today but will message seller regarding that . Like you say RR UK if so then bit of a bargain thank you all for your input it's much appreciated Will post re typo |
