Had this for about 8 years now and looking at selling it but I haven't the foggiest what the tyre is off.

Any ideas?

Can only guess it's off a single seater open cockpit racer of some sort.

Probably won't specifically be for anything. It's just a slick produced in a certain size really. Will ask them if you want?

Can do if you don't mind Nick.

I don't think it's anything special but I'd like to know what it is I'm selling.

It's an old worthless tyre.

That people often mistake as being worth something because it looks like it's off an f1 car.

I'd grow a potato in that. Seriously would be quite good in a garden

Does that not absolutely stink? I had tyres in my garage for a while and they gave off an odd smell.

You get used to the smell after a while. There are thousands and thousands of them outside my office door and I never smell them.

Doesn't smell at all.

Looks like it's going on eBay as Ayrton Senna's last race tyre.

If its worthless but some people think its worth something then it might end up being worth something!?

I agree its nothing special but worthless? Lets see how the auction proceeds

Still better than a kick up the arse considering its worthless and would actually probably cost you to lash it

How much is a circle of glass? Fiver?

Wouldn't cost anything to lash it, other than a bit of fuel to drive 2 mins down the road, followed by a bit of energy to lash it over a hedge if you wanna get picky like.
