Any diehards still using TRXs?
When I bought my car I replaced the TRX wheels with 15" style 5s. Is anyone here still actively using their TRXs?
Re: Any diehards still using TRXs?
I occasionally fit one of these sets if the weather is good!euro24 wrote:Is anyone here still actively using their TRXs?

PS. They are still for sale (don't forget there are five of each).
They are ALWAYS rustier than you thought!!!!!!

I still have TRXs on several of my cars but I do worry about the cost of replacing themeuro24 wrote:When I bought my car I replaced the TRX wheels with 15" style 5s. Is anyone here still actively using their TRXs?

The 415 tyres are now £347.00 from Longstone tyres. They were over £400 not long ago.Pod wrote:I still have TRXs on several of my cars but I do worry about the cost of replacing themeuro24 wrote:When I bought my car I replaced the TRX wheels with 15" style 5s.

I bought a set of Alpinas which look equally good, and tyres only cost about£100, although I still have the BBS wheels with TRX's in the garage.
My experience with Ferrari's and Maseratis has taught me that the rarer tyres are usually produced about once a year and as stocks get bought, prices rise. I have excellent contacts with the tyres trade but these rarer tyres are only sold via specialist dealers such as Longstone.
At least now I am not held to ransom!
