[For Sale] RRS L494 skinny spare
Bought this as a back-up when I had two wheels and tyres on my RRS during lockdown #2 and couldn't get repairs/replacements. It's 195/70 R20 sized
Shows some signs of being on a car but tyre not showing signs of wear. Seller had a contract with JLR so likely this was on a vehicle being 'shunted' around the site when wheels and tyres were in shortage, etc. (you should see an RRS or FFRR with four of these on, looks like it's on tippy-toes )
Now its just taking up space in my garage.
Looking to get £80 and can maybe arrange a meet-up depending on where you are in the country otherwise we need to agree about postage/collection/delivery.

Just a small thing, if you want to clear this space saver wheel, these usually change hands for around a tenner or even free on this site so I reckon £80.00 is well OTT and you would be extremely lucky to sell it at that price.
Just my opinion and trying to be helpful.

think the tenner wheels are the clatty rusty steel things, this on the other hand looks like a skinny wee alloy and rather tidy too with lovely patterns on the tread, wouldn't look out of place at the Sunday dinner table

Still a space saver for emergency use use only and certainly cannot be used if towing.

Hi,
not commenting on the price but a space saver spare certainly CAN be used for towing
if you want to or not is another think, happy to be corrected if legislation has changed recently
when I was looking for RRS space saver they were like hens teeth or over £100

as to price I spent all of about 20 seconds on eBay looking at what they were going for and it ranged from about £125 down to about £50 (Think I paid £90 for it when I bought?) and hence price point for this one.
Am open to offers, obviously, but for a tenner I'd rather slash the sidewalls and stick it in a skip......
