    Hey men and women of the motoring forum,

    We're drifting tomorrow and we have forgotten about our need for tyres, with no tyre centres around open I'm asking if you have any 18 inch tyres around the 225 wide mark that to you are worn down, could we please take them off your hands :)
    They can be less or more wide than that we'll get the on!
    I'm based in the Offaly/Kildare area and any help would be massively appreciated.

    Even if they're well worn below legal give me a shot here :)

    Thanks for the lovely gesture man, 245 is where we get chronic rubbing though sadly.
    Thank you very much for the offer though!

    Yep but not many will give you tyres that are no longer of use (Under legal limit).

    It's the only way we can keep ourselves going when everything else is so costly, we can't afford to buy new or partworn tyres at €50 a pop :o just to burn them off the car in a few laps.
