openeo deliver plus they can fit for you , my second option is black circles , .....i ’m starting a debate now 🤣🤣 vredestein ultrac are very good plus not too much ££ , one car has pirelli p zero nero , the vredestein are so much better , the wet grip is very good too , when the pirelli wear out then vredestein

I always use the following to compare prices:

https://www.tyreleader.co.uk/
https://lovetyres.com/
https://www.f1autocentres.co.uk/

F1 Autocentres pricing includes fitting and they price match if you can find a tyre cheaper elsewhere. Camskill prices are great but when you factor in fitting cost you don't actually save much (if anything).

I've been looking for Michelin sport cup 2s, but there is a huge variation in prices
However, I did notice Kwik fit doing Yokohama AD08R'S in 245 40 18 for under £130 fitted, which is cheap.

You will never get a consistent singe best place to buy, each place does different offers at different time. My current tyres (goodyear eagle F1's) I got fitted by Kwik Fit (would never usually touch them) but, they were the cheapest around at time by miles dues to a promotion they were doing.

The sites quoted so far are the ones I used, then I did a local search with the main bigger companies (kwik fit, halfords, etc) to see how close to the prices they were.

Yep this^^^^^. I got my Michelin super sports at Kwik fit for £30 a corner less than anywhere at the time.

how you feeling about your car bro? Hating or loving it?

I always compare Camskill and blackcircles.com at the same time.

Often when I need tyres I'll check out both websites, and one is sometimes significantly cheaper than the other...it's almost like they take it in turns to do the bargains!

I've never used the fitting services, I just get them delivered to my door and fitted at work

ZANY

In all honesty bro I hate it with a passion I’ve really had enough of it!


but until the day it goes ill keep finding things to do to it

just bought a set set of Superleggra 18s quite ultra cheap bro! As you know what I’m like with my bargains I’ve put them on eBay for silly money till I get my tyres you never know...

just need 4 quality tyres as the ones are on are 3xtoyo proxies and one other new all plenty tread and good but not good enough for my scoob as it’ll do my head in knowing there’s one not same so all four are going

ordered a few under body summit braces , maxton rear spoiler lip in carbon,

Fair dues zany and I understand why people/owners hate these cars. Myself I hate the fact I can’t go out without attracting idiots up my ar*e. It might one day end me up in jail especially if I have my son in the car and I sort of dread taking it out. I’m very patient most the time but some days I think just sell the fu**in thing as you hardly drive it anyway and when you do you get stressed out 🤬🤬

ZANY

FACKIN SNAP!! that’s two of us bro in the same boat and I bet there are others in here that are same

That is the one and only reason I hate it!! and never really want to take it out

Have to say dashcams are Defo the way forward if we are to keep these cars

btw have you got a dash cam in yours bro?
If not get one you’ll be surprised on how people drive round you 👌 wish I’d got one years ago

johno01

na not got one but yeah I think I may have to invest in one 👍

the nextbase basic one at around 45£ is a good camera , with all dash cams reset the sd card regularly as they can miss clips out , i was hit by an old dear , the usual it was his fault etc , sent footage to both insurance companies , three weeks later it was oh we will pay you out our driver at error , no camera they were looking at 50/50 😕 a dash cam is a no brainier , the claim was over 10£k in the end

Last couple of times I've bought tyres I've gone through Asda tyres. Quite good selection of tyres and competitive price wise, various options either delivered loose, fitted on your drive or put postcode in and gives you options of local garages that will have the tyres delivered direct to them and you choose when to get them fitted, day and hour time slot. Good thing is it may be a local garage you are familiar with, but generally it will be an actual garage and not just a tyre fitting centre.

i shall give it a try thanks pal much appreciated for input 👍

looking everywhere at the moment for all sorts no rush tho
you never know there might be an eBay bargain round the corner

scooobydont

Costco is also worth a check if you know someone with a card.

I've done about 15 miles tops in my car over the last few months. Had far too many people trying to break into it and bumpers all scuffed from people hitting it. I try and leave loads of space but some people just don't care. Was getting a little more confidence in driving it and thought nope I'm gonna buy a BMW normal daily because I'm too much of an idiot who can't be trusted so it should make me a better driver.

I know you've run Toyos but personally I would never run them again while in the UK. In the dry they are brilliant, loads of grip but as soon as it hits a bit of water thats it they want to slide. The roads are damp or wet more often than not.

Have a look at this link, not exactly the ones you are after but they have other sizes and might be worth a consideration.

thanks pal much appreciated

im leaning towards Pirelli or Dunlop sp’s at the moment and a toss up batween black circles and camskills as I have the Pirelli p zero on the golf and they are really good and so are the Dunlop sp sports on the impreza

once I get back home I’ll toss a coin lol, there’s no way I’m putting 3 of one brand and one of the other on my car

I might just give the Superleggra’s in with the car to demon wheels near Preston for a colour change thinking white gold or hyper silver, bmw anthracite that I had my xxr’s in and see what they can offer as they do tyres aswell really good freindly lads did a top job on the golf alloys

Have a hunt for black circle discount codes. I found one that worked and got 10/15% off my order. Ended up getting Goodyear super sports for £90 a corner.

NOSSY_89

What did you end up going for then. Pirelli p zeros are brilliant and so are falkens.

ZANY

not gone for anything yet still kicking tyres
