What are these tyres?

What size are they? 

They are on ebay fitted with YOKOHAMA A008's but there is not a lot in the description?

Wellers.

Any idea what the markings on the wheel mean e.g. 500 x 10 x 11? 12  87? and H.G. 605?

12 87 is I would assume the manufacture date.

Google throws up this

The buy it now on your relisted item is a bit of an 'ouch'. Are the tyres worth that much? Are they new or old and unused? Wheels aren't worth much for sure.

From what I can make out in the pic the tyres are YOKOHAMA A008, the description says never been used on the road and from the pics they do look new. I have sent a couple of messages ref postage, Tyres Size, Rim Width and Offset. Tyres are 165/70/10, I have not had a response to RIm Width or whether the wheels have an offset.

 

Don't think I would pay £250 and have ask if he would take an offer but he needs to add that option to the Ebay listing. 

 

And is it me or do the two on the outside look wider?

I'll repeat just in case this is lost in the information above..

 

 

TRAILER WHEELS
 

 

Don't fit them to a car !!!!

 

And as you can buy the tyres new for < £50 inc VAT each... why bother

I agree, don't bother (but then I think they look horrible anyway ;D). Plus never assume they're new... Never been used on road could mean used a bit off road!

 

That other old listing says 5Jx10 and off-road only.

 

If you're desperate for them, you could give him an offer and ask him to cancel the listing. Nobody bought them last time so can't see why he would demand to see the auction out.

Jonny, there is a set of 10x5 miniator alloy with tyres in the for sale section. Good price too! I was going after them (well I still want them) but can't collect at the mon :(
