I know the subject of tyres has been mentioned before but I can't find the thread. Where can I find the best value on-line - price and delivery?

Thanks Steve.

Can't find the thread!!! I like the pun

now, any good sites selling alloy?

hope you didn't order tyres yet. got my 15''alloys with toyo tyres last year from DP Motorsports, ayr, scotland, delivered to donegal for less than 400e. better rate for stg at time. just search dpmotorsport

Thanks Barney, is that co.uk or .com?

.co.uk. and tyres quoted are budget but upgraded me to toyo proxes for £30 extra. good luck.

While we're on the subject of tyres, need a set for me transit. Any recommendations lads??

Hi Johnny boy.We have 8 Merc Vito's and the ones that came with Continentals fitted lasted the longest. When time came for replacing them, some got Bridgestones and they complained that they were shite in the wet as they are too hard so i went for the Firestone vanhawk which the lad said were softer and wouldnt give the same mileage. I find them grand in the wet and funnily , very quiet.......shhhhhhhhh!!!

The originals were michelin, and I got 55k out of them. The 2nd set were some tyre called maxilla??..anyway, only got 35k. (I know, I went for the cheap option). This time I'm not just gonna go with what the guy in the tyre place tries to sell me, I'm gonna do a bit of research and then see what he'll charge to fit and balance, versus supply and fit/balance.
