Smile Which tyres shuld i get??

Hi, just a kwik Q askin for advice really, i need ato get a new pair of tyres 4 my Scooby, iv got nasty cheap Ling Longs (frankly sh*t in my opintion) on the back and BF Goodrich G-Force Proflers on the front 215/45 ZR 17 Ws, I want replace the cheap ones cos they're crap but just wonderin if shuld put 225s all round, iv seen one the Large kno tyre places doin BF Goodrich G-Force 225/45 Z 17's for £76 each, not if that all in tho. My local garage can get a pair of 215/45 Z 17 Avons for £86 all in. Any ideas which i shuld do. The fronts r fine so a bit reluctant to scrap 2 decent tryes but if 225s r a more popular choice shuld i just bite the bullet and 4 new ones???

Vredestein Ultrac Sessanta's

I have had 4 fitted today on my scoob, massive improvement in grip compared to my old Toyo T1R's.. quieter road noise and better comfort...

Highly recommended by loads of people on here....

We need to know what model/year car you have as different models have different tyre sizes.

Iv also found BF Goodrichs on a website - http://tyremen.myshopify.com/product...ce-profiler-xl
