Wheel and tyre wanted

simbo · Apr 7th, 2010, 19:27

I am looking for 1 or possibly 2 wheels and tyres for my S40. 195 55 15. Bought the car not long ago and 1 wheel is totaly damaged and the other is quite badly dented. Live in Spalding area, lincolnshire. Thanks

Which model of wheel is it? Most breakers have a decent selection at not a great cost. Might even get a decent tyre on it at the same time.

thanks, it just a standard wheel, not alloy,

Probably a bit harder to find then. I know of a breaker near me that may have a *40 with steel wheels. He did a week or 2 ago.

do you know why they are harder to come by??

Not sure but I reckon alloys were standard fitment.
Changing to alloys might be an option for you if you spot a good set in a breakers. Shouldn't be too expensive, I would reckon on about £80 complete with tyres.
