Help - need new tyre!

KittyKatSmack · 28-06-2004, 11:25 PM

A nail in my tyre on the weekend has apparently done too much damage to repair, and so I need to replace, aaaarrrgggghhhhh!

I need a tyre, and I need money

Looking to replace a Kuhmo 712 Ecsta 205/45 - R16

Anyone have any ideas where I can get one for less than $200 fitted and balanced?

Please help!!!

*note: the itty bitty yellow space saver wheel looks and drives like CRAP!*

Should easily be able to get a 205x45x16" tyre for less then $200. But did you want to replace with exactly the same?
