each?

Let me know what you are going to put on it as I'm owed a favour or two from a large tyre outlet company and the rubber isn't worth trying to get cheaper on my sizes. one cost for any iirc :thumb:

get a list together of what ya have Baz and I'll make a trip up your way, before I blow my wad on a second hand toy with inspiration from Rav's thread about holiday photos 8O

My tyres will be on a budget price fella i`m not into big named brands when something else will do the same job cheaper, let me ask you what can you get me for around the 300 mark.

Raise the height to carry the correct sized rubber imo and keep a bit of comfort. At our ages its worth the extra inch or so.
