Default 18" BBS Medea alloys x4

I`ve received my smaller 17`s today so my much loved Medea`s are up for sale. They came on my car as standard V50 SE Sport, approx 5 months ago I spent nearly £800 fitting all 4 out in Michellin Pilot Exalto tyres as they blew everything else out of the water. Unfortunately, some SCROAT stuck a knife in 1 of them approx 1 month ago so I put a brand new budjet tyre on as I knew I was selling, and didn`t have £185 spare.
All 4 wheels have got some form of scuffs on them from before I bought the car, as you can see from pictures it`s not too bad.
I`m after £650 for these and collect only (for now). If nobody is willing to collect or meet within 2 weeks I`ll look at sorting a courier out.
I`m near Liverpool and regularly travel to the lake district of a weekend so I`d be happy to meet anywhere in between on the M6.















When I get round to taking the wheels off I can take some more pictures in greater detail. In my honest opinion, I planned to have them refurbished when I bought the car 12 months ago but you only see the scuffs etc when you`re up close so never bothered with it.
Send me a private message if you`re interested

*EDIT* haha I`ve just noticed the first 2 wheel pictures are of the same wheel. Also, the wheel that`s slightly out of focus is probably the worst hit (wasn`t deliberate) so as I say, I`ll take better pics once they`re off the car.

Are any of the tyres go and how much would you sell them? What about the other 3 tyres? I am just interested in the tyres.

Cheers monkey (that sounds weird) my main reason is I do too many miles to fork out for 18" tyres but the extra ride comfort will be welcome, even though my current ride is pleasant

Is it that you want to sell the tyres and the wheels as a set?

I don't mind buying the four tyres without the wheels. Its just the tyres that I need.

Is this OK?

I think he means he wants to sell them as a wheel and tyre package. So no splitting them.
