Hi. I found i have £10.68 on a old paypal account. So i thought i would buy some rimtape...

Now... i have a icelandic furio with for grapite grey vts alloys...

I was looking at a light blue rim tape like this:

Now im wondering how many i would need...

It says its enough for 2 19 inch wheels... now my maths isnt good... but would that mean i need 2 sets for 15" alloys?

Thanks

Youll prob need two,,and just incase you may have a bit left over incase anythign happens or when you change your tyre etc when it needs to come off. If your going to have it on your lip,,i got 7mm rim tape and becasue my VTR alloys are glossy black they didnt stick very well so i didnt bother in the end. Also i nwated to cover the lip more as 7mm was no way wide enough,,if you wnat the whole lip covered then itll prob have to be like 14mm or so,,otherwise like i found out youll have to place it on the flat part of the alloy instead of the lip(If you see what i mean)Or on the tyre.
