Hi, looking at getting some 16" tyres for the track to fit a 320i E90, if you have a new or slightly used set that's in excellent condition, roadworthy and not been repaired before that you wanting to offload do let me know,

Cheers

You looking for just tyres or both rims and tyres?

I have my old oem set (replaced them with my 19").

In melb so I don't know how much it'd cost to send them up, or, how much they're worth.

They are excellent condition. No curb rash and the tyres have a bit of tread left (run flats).

Thanks but looking at only tyres since my original 16's on my alloys have worn out too. Burnt out the little that was left in the 16"s on the last track day we had, just in time for the 19's but will need new or near new 16" tyres for the next track day. Don't fancy burning out the 19 Michelins on the track.

you can still get performance focused tyres that are comfortable and reasonably priced - no point going for OEM runcraps OR bob jane specials when the tyres will be used on the track

The Ventus R-S3 is Hankook's Extreme Performance Summer tire developed for serious sports car, sports coupe and performance sedan enthusiasts looking for a race-minded street tire that can also meet the demands of autocross, drifting and track events. The Ventus R-S3 is designed to reduce the performance gap between street and track tires by significantly improving dry traction; however like all summer tires, it is not intended to be driven through snow, on ice or in near-freezing temperatures.

Hankook Racing Carbonblack Silica Compound (RCSC) technology has been incorporated in the Ventus R-S3 to improve dry grip. The tire's profile has been developed to maximize a footprint contact patch that features a directional tread design comprised of large shoulder blocks, notched intermediate ribs and a wide center rib to deliver constant road contact and enhance the tire's handling capabilities. The Ventus name and unique flame patterns are subtly recessed into the center rib and both intermediate ribs to help drivers show off their "hot" new treads. Wide circumferential center grooves, narrower outboard grooves and multiple lateral grooves provide water evacuation for wet traction. The tire's internal structure includes two wide steel belts reinforced by nylon to provide strength and high-speed capability while two-ply polyester sidewalls help resist lateral deflection to provide responsive handling and cornering stability.
