Flex Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 (edited) Pretty well known. I've got avon z33 on and there a massive improvement over RE50s. But if you want the best then it's Mitchelin Pilot Super Sports for the win. Edited August 16, 2013 by flexib Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AliveBoy Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 There's a few cheaper places, try camskill or tyretraders, on tyretraders you can use the code "mxclub" for a discount too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
370Ad Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 (edited) Ekona is going to come on here and get mad......o wait it's not what you think Try Camskill bud, usually the cheapest, it's like the John Lewis of the tyre world! They do price matching too. Edited August 16, 2013 by 350Ad 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I find mine a bit floaty at speed sometimes and think it might be pressure related. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jp606 Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 Try Pneus Online. My tyres are £50 cheaper than Camskill for two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LRF4N Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 I find different websites are cheaper for different tyres so best to shop around rather than go back to one each time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AliveBoy Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 I find different websites are cheaper for different tyres so best to shop around rather than go back to one each time Not sure about tyre sellers, but airlines have their websites set up so that if you get a price for a flight, go away (they presume to check other prices) then come back, their price is obviously the cheapest, so they bump it up. A clear of the cookies can bring the flight price back down again. I wonder if any car parts dealers do this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AliveBoy Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 ASDA sell car tyres, did you know that? http://www.asdatyres.co.uk/ Found that out the other week, it was only a matter of time though as they are part of Walmart and in the states you can buy tyres, an exhaust, a gun, beer and your shreddies at the same time!

docwra Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 I've got avon z33 on and there a massive improvement over RE50s. You sure you dont mean RE040s? RE050A are excellent, they are also about 40% more expensive .......... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peteman35 Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 Lovetyres.com Beats most of the sites Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtbiscuit Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 If including fitting then event Tyres are cheaper than black circles. But Tyres only then openeo are often beating camskills on price. But a lot can depend on the Tyre you want. I decide on the Tyre then look for the cheapest on the net Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blimsa Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 eBay isn't to bad. I got a set of pilot super sports delivered for under £600! That was from a German place to.

EvansJD2112 Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 Had a full set of Vredestein ultrac sessenta fitted a few weeks ago by Saltney tyres near Chester http://www.saltneytyres-cheshire.co.uk/ £465 fitted for 2x 245/40 r18 and 2x 225/40 r18 Very impressed with the service and very, very happy with the tyres Dropping the profile to 40 saves a lot of cash and not noticed any difference in feel.

HaydnH Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 Not yet.... Defo needs spacers. Next on the shopping list. Then lowering, then uprev.... Does it ever end? I'd focus on the performance things first before the Uprev: plenum spacer, air filter, velocity stack and exhaust (all depedning on year on car), otherwise you'll have to remap again afterwards.
