Work out almost the same size [8mm different]
So unless someone thinks these are wrong, these will end up on the van. Hopefully from a local place for cheaper

is that a posted price cause if its not i will probally be able to beat that price. if you ring me in work i`ll give you some price options on sizes.

what wheels are you going to run them on.

Its £403.60 delivered for 5.
Will be putting them on the 16" steels, which are 5.5 by 16 if i recall correctly.
Didn't realise you did that sort of thing. Will give you a call tomorrow afternoon

that is a very good price you have found, i paid about £100 each when i bought some AT2's (215/75/15) about 2 years ago now.

Tis a very good price. My supplier couldn't quote on the 215's as their on back order. 225's came in at £440 for 5 which I thought was a bit pricey. I didn't pay much more for my 255's

Just realised I priced up 75 profiles sorry presumed you were going for /75/16's

Sorry i haven't got back to you yet, been mucking around with the van [MOT tomorrow]Been getting a rear fog light working, not having the right bit to change a rear cv boot ect, ect....
Then found out that engine getting very hot, Checked rad. No water or air. Checked pipes underneath, heating pipes hot, coolant pipes not, so just ordered a new stat. Also checked the blue darlek cap, can blow and suck through it so ordered that too.
And finally turbo is knackered, leaking a fair amount of oil out of exhaust joints. Let's hope it passes emissions test

Rich man's game eh!

Cheers mate, just ordered the stat and cap from brickwerks, so should be with me friday. My neighbour will have a look tomorrow before he takes it for a MOT. It takes a fair while to get hot, had it running on the drive for 45mins, then noticed the gauge was just above 3/4, must be losing a bit of heat being pumped around the heating circuit.
Hoping that maybe the stat can be somehow left in open position.
The recon turbo prices are a bit of an eye opener But i've got the mechanic on the case, fingers crossed he can find one cheaper than i've found
Again, cheers for the offers
