We might disagree on pressures, but we all agree runflats are the devil's own work :evil:

Hi
Resurrecting this one as I need to identify my wheels from the pictures above please . Car is in at dealer and they have told me I have a slight buckle to rear nearside wheel , a car they sold me 2 months to the day ago . I have no comment from dealer yet as to this being the source of the noise from same corner but they sent me the little health check video and called it out . If i do need a new wheel thought i may start the hunt now .

Considering you've only had the car 2 months, they're replacing the wheel, right?

The run flats have gone and 4 new Avon ZZ5's are on. <a href="tel:225 40 18">225 40 18</a> and <a href="tel:245 40 18">245 40 18</a> The difference is extraordinary .It was poring with rain as I left the Tyre shop and I did 20 miles of dual carriage way and noticed all the other noises in the car apart from the road noise. Its easily reduced noise by more then half. Then onto some twisties that I drove when I collected the car on Tuesday and described it as twitchy. Its not now its smooth as ever and no bump steer feeling at all. This was in the wet, the regular tires have absolutely transformed the car and steering . Its released the car from OK to very good, now still got to stop that dash rattle. As an aside all the rattles are far less with a bit of compliance in the tires.

And there's even better to come as the tyres 'settle in'.

I've been running Avon ZZ5's for just over 12 months.. Seriously recommend. The wet grip is surprisingly good and even in the snow, they felt good. Great all round tyre imo.
Now: Jaguar XF R Sport red/black leather and soooo many new toys
Gone :cry: sdrive 30i, silver, black leather, 19" wheels
Gone :cry: 2.0i sport. Black. Black Piano trim. Black Leather.
