Here are my Mr2 Mk3 Roadster alloys wrapped in Uniroyal Rainsport 3 195/50/15 tyres all round.
All 4 tyres were purchased 18 months ago and have only covered 300 miles. Tyres are all evenly worn (if you can say that) and have 6mm all round.
Now for the wheels - 3 wheels have the centre caps, but 2 have the midship logo on the top. The other fell off and I'll try to find the other centre piece.
I had the wheels refurbished in 'silver sparkle' 3 years ago and from the photos you certainly can see them sparkling :)

There are some chips to the paintwork as you can see and some scratches. The grime that hasn't come off is only on there because fairy liquid doesn't get it off. Correct wheel cleaning chemicals will shift this (brake dust basically).
On wheel 3 there has been some paint flake off near to the centre cap.
I paid £220 for the tyres and these are still brand new in my opinion so I do not want to lose an epic amount on these, so taking into account the chips, scratches and missing centre cap, I will take £190 for the whole lot!
I used MK3 wheel nuts on these as well, but over the years during the rebuild(s) I have lost a few, but can throw in what I have if you like.
Collection is definitely my preferred option but if you cannot collect I'll have to get you a cost and they'll probably have to go on a pallet due to size and weight, but please let me know.
Cheers
