That's a damn good price !!!
Personally I would go for the Toyo's.... but both tyres are top quality.
What colour are you looking at getting ?

 

Just noticed Redline 18's with Toyo's on eBay from Midland Wheels for £695!!

 

Midland wheels don't have them Tarmac 2's 18". Just phoned them!

Going to get mine in Antharite/Steelgrey. Look identical to P1 Alloys.

 

Just found these....
Clicky

Be interesting to see which brand of tyre is on them,
Let us know how you get on when you do get a set.

 

The Antharite ones with Toyos are £795.

Only the Gold are £699 with really cheap-never-heard-of name tyres!

 

Been looking myself, £675 here

looks to have different colours, just got to wait til my tryes need replacing

 

One thing to consider is that those particular one's may be for a new age car, from what I have found you need a 35mm wall if your going 18" on a classic.

 

awesome value for money wheels.. i paid 475 for mine thru the group buy from midlandwheels.. thats with toyo tyres and fully balanced..

 

Is that them in black or gunmetal??

I wish I knew if these would fit over my brakes??

 

they are gunmetal.... they fit over my ap 6pots with 330mm (not shown in pic)

 

I just ordered my 18" Rota Tarmac 2's from Rare Rims in Antharite!

Can't wait for them to arrive now!

I tried all these places that were apparently cheaper, but in the end, thay couldnt beat Rare Rims for price! And they are fitting Goodyear F1's for the same price as Toyos!!!!!

 

Thats good to know .... I have 335mm Godspeed discs and AP 6 pots and my RB5 17" wheels barely clear the wheels (at the rim and the backs of the spokes!) .... nice colour of car by the way!!

WOW!! .... incredible bargain!!

 

You guys had quite a deal last year.... cheaper than buying the rubber on their own.
Stunning motor to Tas !! tell me are the alloys laquer finished on the insides as well ? only my standard new age one's I have on are not on the insides and that makes then a nightmare to keep clean.

Can you keep me informed on the quality and a few pics please when they arrive.

Thanks
Simon

 

How can we sort out a group buy again on these?!?!?! I REALLY want a set!!

 

yeah, id be up for a group buy as well!!

CyprusScooby, how much did you pay for your 18" Rota tarmac 2's if you dont mind me asking??

Im after the same wheels and am trying to find out prices and what oters have paid! :-)

 

I have just had a quote of £550 for Tarmac 2's on 17's with Toyos...

They said they could do a group buy on 10 sets for £495...

 

£495 Each that was

 

I bought mine from Rare Rims. The 18" Tarmac 2's are advertised for £899, but when I phoned up, he offered me them for £850. I got him down to £795 with Goodyear F1's or Toyos!!!!!!

Unfortunately , they have just phoned me back and said they can't get Goodyears from anywhere!!!!

I even phoned up Goodyear HQ in the UK and they said they have only two tyres in the whole of the UK in the 215/35/18 size. They don't even know when a new batch will be made!!!!!

I just ordered them with the new Toyo Proxes T1-R instead!

 

You should have tried MidlandWheels - they were £200 cheaper than rare rims for the above that I was looking at, quite amazed at the price!

 

They don't have them in Antharite/Steelgrey though!
They are not even an official dealer for Rota alloys. Rare Rims are the official distributer for the UK and said they have had alot of bother with them!

Plus that price is with cheapo tyres. NEVER skimp on tyres!

 

They did the group buy on the last lot and tyres are Proxy T1s. I am ordering the Gunmetal which are in stock.

Have to post some pictures up when you get them in!

 

How much did you pay in the end mate?
I will get pics up ASAP.
Wouldn't ming seeing what your Gunmetals look like on too!

 

£550 delivered and balanced! That includes VAT on 215 45 17 Wheels + Tyres

 

Have you considered getting the 40 wall as an option ?

 

These I will be interested to see

 

Sorry- was a typo!! It is a 40 tyre!

 

lol I'm pleased to hear you say that.

 

£475 Bargain and fits over these no problem

 

I've just ordered a set from RareRims also.... 18's in Steel Grey clothed in Toyo's

Just so you guys don't get confused like I did initially on the Rare Rims site you will not find them listed as Tarmac II's they are called GRA now.



I'll get some pics up as soon as I can.
