My car is fitted with two Fulday Y-2000 tyres, and two Goodyear Eagle NCT70 tyres. Both are 185/70/15 and look a bit like this (Y-2000 tread):

The car hadn't been used much since the mid-90s, and the I'm guessing the tyres were from the late 80s. It appears Fulda still sell the Y-2000 in Eastern Europe (they were surprisingly good when we had that snow a few weeks back!).

Car is now on new tyres, so they are free if anyone wants them. All four are in good condition with lots of tread. Collect from London E11 3HZ.

don't want to put a downer on this, but really you should not use tyres that are more than 5 years old for reasons of safety
