Anyone got an old Conti ?

After comprehensively trashing a 20" Conti at the weekend I need to replace that tyre. As the other 3 in the set are all about 75% worn (but 25% life left) I don't really want to buy a new tyre. Does anyone want to sell a well used but still legal 20" Conti to allow me to restore my set of summer tyres ? RRS TDv8 HSE Rimini

I've got a few in the shed.. Whistle ..dont tell SWMBO.

They are all 5-6mm but I will probably substitute one or two of the ones from the car over the winter.

Presumably you arent in a rush? Before the big thaw will be ok?

I can sort one out for you , what depth is the tread on your summer set?

Thanks Mart, there is about 3 - 4 mm on the summer set. Although, as is common with Conti's, the edges look and feel far more worn out than the centres. I figure the tyres I have are good for about another 5,000 miles max so anything you had which might manage the same would definitely be on my shopping list. And again you are right - I have no rush to replace this tyre as the vehicle will be wearing its Pirelli's now until the spring. RRS TDv8 HSE Rimini
