    Used tyres, suit track work or cheap spares

    I have a set (4 of) Marangoni tyres in average condition (maybe 1/2 tread) 215/40/17 (I need to confirm this, but pretty sure). Came off a Polo 9N3, they were reviewed to be good tyres by Polo drivers

    Located Sydney Lower Nth Shore

    The tyres work, 1 I know has a budge in the sidewall but never felt like it affected perormance. They were on a low car and show signs of rubbing.

    They came with a set of rims i purchased I then put my own rubber on.

    after $200 for the set of 4, negotiable. They have been waiting to be tracked for months now and it looks like thats just t going to happen...

    I can arrange an inspection or photos if interested, just a bit tricky to get to in the shed right now...

    Mate, putting your life into the hands of a tyre bulge is a bad idea. The bulge means the tyre is either defective or has been hit hard and the glue/re-enforcement fibers are weakening eventually becoming a blow-out.

    The only thing I would use a bulged tyre for is a skid pan other than that bad news.

    down to $100. I know 3 of the 4 are good. Reputable brand. Would suit a mk3 or Polo owner wanting a cheap replacement pair (and then a spare!)
