Post Crater with tyre

For sale

One 16" Crater alloy in Anthracite, fitted with an unused Avon ZV5 tyre. Ceramic coating just applied to this alloy, for added protection!

Never fitted to the car, as was bought as a spare, to match the other 4 on the car.

Other 4 sold a while back, but this one is still in the garage.

No use to me, as I have a set of 17" Arcadias fitted to mine.

Photos to follow soon, but the Craters on the car are in my photo album.

Respectful offers invited.

Thanks

Gary

Thumbs up Photos added

Here are some photos of the BBS Crater and Avon tyre.

7J BBS alloy wheel, anthracite metallic and satin clear coat, sealed with KKD R-evolve X ceramic coating and topped with Autobrite seal and protect, so the dirt should fall off the wheel when washing.
Inside barrel of the wheel is painted satin black, so brake dust doesn't show up. This is an old show car trick!

Tyre is an unused Avon ZV5 205/55/16 91V.
As you can see from the photos, the seams are still visible across the tread, as are the bumps on the contact surface.

The wheel is by no means in absolutely mint condition, as there are a few sanding marks still visible, if looking closely and a couple of patches that are raised inside the spokes, but don't detract from the look of the wheel.

I am sure £50 plus carriage isn't too much to ask, as the tyre would be worth that alone.

Thanks for looking.

Gary

Make an offer.

Either that, or it's away to the tip.

Tommy, I've got one here with no tyre that will meet a horrible fate soon in my planned garage clearout. It is pretty rough corrosion wise but not damaged and as you're not far from Birmingham, would cost you £25 to have it like new at City Powder Coaters. You're also not that far from me and it's a freebie if you're interested?

I've got two decent spare Craters, rims only, if anyone else needs one or two (not free, I'll sell them on eBay eventually)
