wheels can be expensive, new they are approx Ł230 each, 2nd hand set, nearly new sold for Ł740 on ebay recently

continental sport tyres 235/45/18 are over 100 a corner, I just got a set of Sunny 235/40/18 tyres for mine Ł50 a corner, still load rated and all that, probably last just as long as well as continentals apparantly are shit on the transits

they were good mate can certainly tell the difference going round a corner but did arount 1500 - 2000 miles less per tyre on mine,now run kumhos and get better miles out of em
