  • SA Goodyear F1 Asymmetrics 2. Load rating 88Y 225/40/18

    Note load rating 88Y

    Have four of these - done about 5000kms at most. At least 5-6mm tread all round (conservative measurement)
    Bought them with a set of wheels and when changing them over to another set of wheels I recently bought, it was pointed out to me that they are the wrong load rating for a GTI. I'm sure it was an honest mistake from the supplier I bought them from, but obviously too late to ask for a refund now since I didn't notice it originally.

    Coming off the car today and being replaced with the correct load rating tyres.

    Pick up preferred.

    Can post photos this weekend once off the car.

    Would suit polo owners or other vehicles with a lower load rating than the Golf GTI... or maybe someone wants them as track day tyres?

    Cost me $1000 + delivery which was an excellent price at the time. I know Tyrepower Croydon in Victoria are selling these for $675 delivered (where I've bought my replacements)

    Price: $400. Local pick up preferred.

    Edit: have just measured the tread with them off the car. Rears 6 mm to tread wear indicator and fronts 4 mm (conservative measure) to tread wear indicator so plenty of life left in them. Local buyers welcome to inspect. In interest of full disclosure one has had a puncture repair.

          According to VW Australia it can be between 88 and 93 depending on wheels size - as per below:
