Question


I know this is in the wrong topic but I wanted the best response..

I need new tyres and I'm coming over to England in a weeks time...
back to Preston!!! for two weeks!!!!

Before I come back I'd like to know what people find is the ideal tyre for MY01....

and some prices so as I can decide if it's worth doing here or in England.....

Cheers mi dears

Plums.

Goodyear Eagle F1s seem to get good reports.

I've had a few sets in the past and was happy with them, they even look good!

The F1 has recently been redesigned and I can't really comment on it first hand, but i've heard nothing but praise for it.

If you phone around the garages, making use of their price match offers, you can expect to pay in the region of £400-450 for a set of 4.

Cheers guys Toyo or Goodyear seem to be the best option then...

I'm running on Bridgestones at the moment which seem to be a good tyre...

On my other cars I used to stick with Yokos A520 nice tyre no experience with them on a Scooby though!
