sl114 Posted January 2, 2007 Share Posted January 2, 2007 That has to be a mistake? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zzzz... Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 ebay is contractually binding..get in there before they go !!! at least they'll be good for playing around and thrashing some old tyres on a track... Since I replaced my Bridgestones with Michelins, I have 4 half worn tyres in my garage waiting for cheap alloys to use for track/drift etc... If I can find the pound coins behind the sofa I'll try and get them Plus the are only 15 minutes down the road, so I might be able to save on transport cost!

AndyC Posted January 4, 2007 Share Posted January 4, 2007 never heard of the brand From the sounds of things they've been manufactured by someone else and then got GTC stamped on them - looks like they do the same with their brakes too (endless).
