OEM 18" alloy wheel tyres

[craggit]

Anybody know anywhere that i can get cheap tyres for the original alloy wheels which if i remember correctly are 235/45R18 and also i bought this car from a "car supermarket" and if they sell me the car with an advisory note that the tyre is getting to being almost illegal is it their legal obligation to change this?

I'm debating whether to buy new set of alloys or buy new tyres, i've been looking and i'm about £366 for 2 tyre's fully fitted these are Continental Sport Contact 2 235/45 R18 W so not bad tyres or i can get some 19" alloys with premium tyres for £650

I bought my car from a car supermarket for a not inconsiderable sum. One tyre was pretty worn so I resolved to let the deal hang on them replacing the tyre....unfortunately their will was stronger! You could buy a used OEM set with good tyres off eBay - that's what I did with my A3 and it paid off big time.
