Another Tyre Question?

[Paulus17]

Just for the record.

Had both new Nexen tyres fitted on the back and only cost £18 for both,and that was also putting the better tyre on the spare

Well pleased with that

Been driving round in it this morning and they seem pretty quiet to me.

A local tyres place has recently recomended a set of Continental CrossContact Winter to me for my T180, at £175 a corner fitted for 225/65-17"s.

No too bad! :)

I have tried loads of different brands of tyres and to be honest found very little difference in any of them. The only ones I had issues with were Pirellis. I have the Hankooks on the T180 and they have a great tread wear number so should last well. They feel just like the Bridgestones and perform no worse/better in all conditions. £110 a corner

As i said before if SWMBO was doing a lot of motorway running then we would have put a better brand tyre on,but for what she does and use the car for i feel happy with the Nexens.

We also looked at a RAV convertible yesterday T reg,and we noticed that that had the same Nexens fitted on the front and Dunlops on the back,same as what our Rav had on when we bought it??

Good choice - I had them on my T180 last winter.

Good price too.

And good to see you are getting the narrower/ higher profile ones.

Continental also say you can run them during summer without any problem - but you'd obviously be better off changing them over and keeping the tread for winter.
