Alrighty folks.
I work at a top secret Council Depot..
we have loads of used tyres coming in to be disposed of- Mainly in 14/15/16/17" sizes. most are above tread wear limits, and undamaged.
Have spoken to my boss and may be able to get an arrangement in place where the tyres can be diverted from the dump.
Assuming I can get enough people interested in getting them.
YOU WOULD HAVE TO PICK THEM UP YOURSELF!!
Depot is approx 1hr south of Crail/Knockhill and 1 hr East of Glasgow.
Anyone interested?
Please start a list below!
Neil
Attention SCOTTISH DRIFTERS! possible free tyres....

with your description i assume this is in or near your abode in newtongrange? anything free gets my attention and ill happily relieve you of some 17's and 14's. in fact ill take as many 17's and 14's as i can fit in my escort van 
giving them away for free will save them money on disposal so everyones a winner

You could always collect them on the way up or I could pick them up from Neil anytime i'm down at his place
I'm only about 45mins from Lossie and could drop them off if needed
