Help with tyres - kentiiboii - 27-08-2013
Right some may of seen ive had a nail in my tyre. Been looking at tyres was hoping for another enduro runway so they match but no one can get.
Budgets are £66 cheapest fitted.
Yet online I can get toyo proxies for £51.
So I was thinking I can match the tyres up front with toyos which are £111 for a pair or £139 delivered and fitted.
What tyres would you recommend dont wanna spend much more than £70 a corner including fitting

Size?
RE: Help with tyres - lolsteve - 27-08-2013
If you just want some cheap tyres fitted that will do for general driving + some spirtied driving I would say Nankang ns2 would do. Don't expect much of them I'm just using and abusing them until they die and I can whack on something better
For my 205/45/17's they were £39 delivered and it cost me £5 a corner to have fitted

Michelin PE2 - If you can still get them, they have replaced them with something.
Pirelli P Zero Nero.
Or proxes but they wear quite fast, my mates fiesta goes through a set a year.

That's cheap! Kuhmo ku31s are also good budgets!
RE: Help with tyres - Matt - 27-08-2013
Is that online price or fitters price?
Catskills are nomally good for budgets
RE: Help with tyres - Matt - 27-08-2013
f*cking auto correct. Camskill
RE: Help with tyres - Curt - 27-08-2013
Moved to the correct section.
Falken ZE914s are a good all rounder.

NANKANG 205/40R17 84V NS2 Fuel Efficency:F Wet Grip:C Noise dB:71 Noise
£123.12
Carriage Charge
£12.47
Plus vat
so it came to like £160 for all 4 corners.

Gosh theyre good price.
Tyres needed are 205/45r17.
I have around £150 to spend just fronts are needed.
My current tyres have only covered about 5k
RE: Help with tyres - Curt - 27-08-2013
They're cheap tyres, that's why... and that 5% difference in profile will effect the price, 45s will be more.
My advice is spend that £150 on the best tyres you can afford for the front, then do the back when you can. Avon ZZ3s are £70 on Camskill and they're very good tyres.

Get 15" rims and be able to afford better rubber

RE: Help with tyres - James92 - 29-08-2013
I've had a couple of sets of t1rs for cheap tyres there ok, i found they lasted quite a while too
RE: Help with tyres - Just Sean - 29-08-2013
I've been looking at ad08s and from what I've researched they seem to last for ages!
Will be my next tyre

They are a good tyre just expensive
Re: Help with tyres - kentiiboii - 01-09-2013
Well the t1rs are on the car and they seem to grip really well. For the amount I drive my car and how much I actually hoon it I think they'll be ok
need to get rears next.

They die stupidly quickly. Loved mine at first but rapidly lost faith in them.
RE: Help with tyres - Stephen - 01-09-2013

End of the day, they are a premium budget tyre. Only get what you pay for!
Help with tyres - Stephen - 01-09-2013
