Hello! Well, the time has come! Tuesday I'm travelling to China for a few days, and I will be needing my garage in the days following my return. Hence, I'm clearing out my garage!

I'm getting rid of what I feel takes up the most space (other than my bike, fridge and computers :P).

So, here goes:

5x 18" rims, with worn tyres (1mm left on what was the front, at leagal limit of back-spare tyre has loads left)

4x 15/16" rims, with tyres. The tyres have a good 7/8mm of thread but they have been in my garage as long as I've had my car, so I think it would be time to change the tyres.

2x big metal cheese wedges (or ramps :P)

I'll upload the pics now, then I'll go down and check out the sizes of the wheels/tyres, etc.

I'm really in a hurry to empty my garage as I am leaving tuesday, so if you could collect today, sunday or monday, that would be great! (note that I will need to be in college sun and mon, so collections would be late in the evening-but monday I can arrange something with our cleaning lady... anyways, if you are itnerested, tell me and we will sort something out...) I'm looking for around £30 for the smaller rims, £100 for the bigger ones and £10 for the cheese wedges.

If you can collect by tuesday, it would be GREAT, otherwise, you can collect when I get back (around the 21st).

EDIT: Images uploaded; you can find them here:

www.europoli.net/images/Car
the folders to look at are, small rims, big rims and cheese :)

I'll go get some sizes and makes now...

EDIT2:
The smaller ones are:
15" rims, made by TSW, 7Jx15CH
with 205/60 R15 Tubeless tires

The bigger ones are:
8Jx18H2 rims, can't figure out who made them, but I doubt they are merc rims as they don't have a part number. They say :
8Jx18H2
Made in Italy
112m (probably the pcd)
and the tyres are 235/40 ZR18 tubeless

I've also washed one of the 18" rims (just water, no products) and it came nice and clean, so apologies for the dark and dirty pics, I'll try to wash the rest of the rims and take new pics asap... oh and if you want too see the 18's on a W202, look around the members galleries for my cars pics...

Just to answer some questions that I got alot. Yes, its £30 pounds for 4 15" rims, NOT £30 each... same goes for the 18" rims. and the cheese wedges...

I just realised I need to go back to the chinese consulate to clarify some problems with my visa (they don't like the idea of a STUDENT applying for a BUSINESS visa apparently...). So I won't be able too make an early return home. If anyone is interested in anything to collect mon or tuesday (my flight has been moved by a day), send me a txt or call me, and I'll arrange either to be home (evening late, probably after 6/7) or to have someone be home (again, late evening). Number is 077 077 377 33, I'll edit it out tomorrow, so write it down if you are interested.

Otherwise, there are people staying at the house so I can ask them to be around this weekend. The final alternative is to wait until the 22nd/23rd, and I'll be back to get thinks properly sorted.

P.s. the shipping company said it would take them 1/2 weeks to get any stuff I send from china here, so I should have PLENTY of time to clear my garage.... Fingers crossed...

Weee! Back from China! No offence to any Chinese people reading this, but that was the WORST trip I have ever been on! Flights were USELESS (SouthernChina), hotel couldn't manage a GBP payment (I don't usually walk around with 1500$ in my pocket, but I guess I need to live and learn), and I had to "work" instead of sight-seeing :P

Anyways, the above are back for sale, minus the 15" rims which are gone. I also have some original steel rims and tyres, will take pics and upload them; I think 25£ for the lot (4 or 5, can't remember, I'll check) sounds reasonable; but I'll take offers.

Michele

So you can get the ramps and/or the 18" rims.
