Question

Hello all,

Just looking for a bit of advice.

Need to change tyres and have been quoted as follows for supply, fit and balancing 215/40 x 17 on the P1.

Bridgestone S03 £120.00
Toyo's £100.00
BF Goodrich £93.00

Any comments on price, grip, wear, looks etc would be greatly appreciated.

Check with Jim Dicksons in Cumbernauld.

I'm sure you will get a recommendation from most on here. Top service and top prices.

I've replaced the standard garbage with Toyos and for the first couple of weeks I was absolutely gobsmacked at the difference. Used to them now. Grip is excellent in wet and dry and I wouldn't change for anything else. Lovely tread pattern too. In fairness i've not tried the other two though.

01236 720205 for Jim.

Hope this helps,

Gamm

Thumbs up

Gammon,

Thanks for the reply.

I too was impressed with the look of the Toyo's and have gone the same way - so far astounded by the difference.

First day in ages it's been dry ! so still to experiment in the damp stuff - no doubt I won't have to wait long.

Regards,

Loobs
