Not yet... Decided to just wait until I'm passing and see if they have any left. I'll probably pass about 10 different stores on my travels in the next few days ::)

TBH, they can be picked up for not a lot more elsewhere so not too worried ;)

Well just been and there was a bit of a size issue, standard fit MFL elite wheels are 225/55/16 but none of the sizes covered that exactly the nearest being 215/55/16  or 225/55/17 and multiple other very near sizes. Luckily I have a pair of rims with 215/55/16 near bald ditchfinders on in the garden so can fit them to these and use when nescessary but I suspect the size 100 will fit over the 225's. Anyone else nabbed a set?

Also picked up a tap and die set for 7.99 ;)

Loads in at queensferry, just deciding on the 90 or 100 set 90 will do 235 40 17. 100 does a little bigger so are prob the safer bet

cem....I hope never to need them, but after the winter we had last year, for the sake of £20 I will like having them in the car just in case.

When the roads are bad, I choose to stay at home, these are for if i get stranded somewhere.

I know , just provoking ;D :y
 
 
ps: last year when we were stranded on a mountain road even the winter wheels and fwd didnt help, because some truck drivers (more than 3) were lazy to put those when climbing a hill , result: they skid and block the road completely >:(

charts like at the bottom of this auction may help establish what set to get, and if they fit your car.

70, 80, 90 , 100 are all lidl are doing...

The Welsh Lidl is region to itself.......but, keep your eye`s open: sometimes the Welsh outlets are a week or three behind the English special offers. :y
