[quote=""Dan1502""]The tyres are Dunlop Grandtrek WT M2. The only reason I tend not to state prices is that sometimes people use the price you paid to bargain come resale time though I don't really see that as relevant. I paid £900. They were bought from BMW less than a year ago for £1,410 which I'm guessing was probably at a reasonable discount.[/quote]

Glad you are happy Dan......perhaps not bargain of the year but clearly of good provenance

I personally don't worry posting prices I paid for stuff..... Just because I might do legwork &/or get lucky with the odd bargain it doesn't reduce the true value of it either in my ownership or should I choose to sell later.

If folk choose to not buy on here there's always ebay, PH or other classifieds.

That set should see you well through coming winter

Not the bargain of the century as you say but considering new tyres are around or over £200 each I think the price is fair. I can't find a scratch on them. The 17s I was going to buy would have worked out about £600 posted and though they apparently had only 3,000 miles of use they were 3 years old. Being a rarer I'm hopeful that they will hold their value pretty well if looked after (and I do look after things).

I'm after a set of 17's for my diesel ready for winter

Well I got my 17"s ready for winter £160 for 4 alloys with Michelin tyres.... On closer inspection there winter m+s tyres with 4-5mm of tread which should see me through this winter and save me £600-£700 in rubber..... Result!!!

I'm similar to you dirtymonkey. I have just bought a set of 17's off ebay with Dunlop winter tyres on (6-7mm all round) for £190 with delivery from Spain!! I'm really pleased with that.
