This seems awfully cheap, and fitted too?

clicky

Shopping around elsewhere returns circa £65 a corner fitted. Anyone dealt with them before?

Does seem very cheap

Not sure if inclusive of vat? It states a vat percentage Undecided


RE: Suspect? - Rippthrough - 03-06-2013

Ears are pretty well known, been around a while.


RE: Suspect? - Scott - 03-06-2013

That's very cheap for those...maybe they're old stock?


RE: Suspect? - tigerstyle - 03-06-2013

I've bought from them before, no problems with them.
But aren't these cheaper: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/4-x-195-50-15-R15-82V-Toyo-Proxes-T1-R-Performance-Road-Tyres-/360668460855?pt=UK_Cars_Tyres_RL&hash=item53f983f737

Testing waht 306oc thinks of Toyos Wink I had a set before and think they were ok.


RE: Suspect? - Scott - 03-06-2013

T1-Rs are great for the price. They're the high end of the mid-range tyre.

'Fitted' Not balanced or valved, or old tyres disposed of Wink read the cheeky small print in the ad. Undecided

I had T1Rs on my MK1 Caddy truck, so similar weight to 306 (light!) I think I'd be happy with them on a 306, it;s the 195/50/15 that is the cheapest profile, and works well on hatches too.


RE: Suspect? - Grant - 03-06-2013

TBH I'm quite happy with spec II's and better the devil you know and all that jazz. Not willing to spend £150 to find out I don't like them lol


RE: Suspect? - Niall - 03-06-2013

T1rs are good budget tyres for the 306 but they wear very quickly and do loose a lot of grip in the wet.


RE: Suspect? - Grant - 03-06-2013

So pretty similar to spec II's in that respect, just better lol

Can't fault the ones I have on at the moment, michelin pilot sport 3's. Epic tyres, and haven't worn much at all since i had them fitted in Feb.

Tyres ain't gonna wear that much on a flatbed or on a driveway Wink
