So buy a set and split it. Sell on on e-bay. It's what I did for a 5th wheel, when I went full size spare.

If it hadn't been for greedy e-bay, I'd have been ££££s in.

Hi bud.

I have a set of 3 - you can make me an offer for one, but can't be arsed with the hassle of postage. Or u can arrange a courier to collect?

I'm based nr Leeds if u fancy a drive down the A1?

Pm me if interested.

Chris.
