Question

I need four 245/45/17's, and seem to remember reading about some sensibly priced tyre places in Lancashire, since I'm picking the GTR up from Rod Bell's on Saturday, a set of new tyres would be good too!

Cheers.

not especially near preston - but not far from the m60 - oldham tyres are cheap as chips - you may prefer to fit 'em elsewhere though as its a bit like bosnia round there ;-)

Thumbs up

Having shopped around for my Goodyear Eagles - a fair while back now, National Tyres in Preston did them for me for £80 a piece fitted and balanced - cheapest by far! They also mentioned that they could do a good deal on 17" at the time... Might be worth a bell. 01772 251099.

Good Luck

Andy - If you could let me know and phone me 0797 457 2644 or mail me - polarbearit@hotmail.com

Was looking for something good and cheap -
Heard that Falken FK451's are suited the skyline but RB are quite pricey for them!
Otherwise something similarly cheap really - maybe the Toyo T1S.

I'd like the Saturday if possible.

Cheers,

Jon

Cheers Andy - I'll probably pass on those to be honest as the Falkens are the same price (and recommened for skylines)...
