Default Set of 4 alloys with good tyres for V70 XC 2002

Posted this in the generic wanted section too.

All my tyres now need to be replaced, so I'm looking at an option to buy a set of good condition alloys, with good condition tyres, for my XC70, 2002. The tyres must all have the same tread depth, due to my car having viscous coupling AWD.

If this works out cheaper than having to buy 4 new Pirelli Scorpions for my current wheels, then this is something I will consider. I can always sell my current wheels and tyres to claw back some of the money spent on replacement alloys.

Let me know what you have.

Hi mate

Thanks for this, but I'm running 16 inch as stock so not sure about going down an inch......and lets be honest, an inch does make a difference, apparently!

Yep, still considering all options. Either need to buy the tyres for my wheels, or good set of alloys with good tyres and equal tread depth.

Any pictures or links. What make and profile of the tyres please.

Thanks
