Halfords wheel and tyre package

I was in Halfords today. They have a set of four Ripspeed Reflex wheels with 195/50x15 tyres for £200. They seem fairly soft compound for a budget tyre.

Anyone tried them?

Strike me as pretty cheap from any angle.

I tried to get wheels from Halfords with an offset of 19mm, I was told if I wanted offsets I would have to pay much more than the sale price. Why do they employ staff have absolutely no knowledge of cars.





If you can keep you head, whilst all others around you are losing theirs, you are not fully aware of the situation

In my experience the tyres in those Halfrauds deals are ditchfinder specials and the packages are cheap for a reason, they are shite.
