Hi folks,
I thought I’d put this out to the forum before I revert to eBay…….
I’ve just received my replacement alloys so I have a set of the factory fit Misano 18” alloys available for sale.
They’ve covered just over 10k miles and are undamaged, apart from one small stone scratch.
Tyres are Hankook Ventus Prime - 215/45 with tread depths of 6/6.2/7.2/7.3
Centre caps can be included if needed.
I’d probably try £600 on eBay (to net £500+ after fees) but if any forum member is interested I’d take £500.
I’m afraid I don’t have facilities for packing / shipping so collection from FY6, but would be prepared to deliver within say a 50 mile radius of Preston.

Not so much that I don’t like the 18’s - just that I find the ride a touch ‘too firm’ for my liking.
I know some / many will hold up their hands in horror but I’ve gone down to 17’s - I did exactly the same on my previous T-Cross and the deeper sidewall did make a noticeable improvement in ride quality, not massive, but better.
‘Fraid at my age comfort trumps style!!
They’re standard VW alloys as used on other Taigo’s - not on the car yet (todays job)
