E85 - Avon ZV7's

Post by Wrighty » Mon Oct 30, 2017 10:47 pm

Looking to replace the run-flats on my E85 due to wear and age.

I've always likes Avons and the ZV7's seem to have good spec, reviews and price

£71.10 fitted - https://www.blackcircles.com/catalogue/ ... e=34751982

Anyone had some experience with these? :driving: :thumbsup:

If you like Avons then fit ZZ5s. The ZV7 is not really a high performance tyre. I've run ZZ5s on two previous BMWs and currently have a set on my Zed. A great tyre and can't fault them for the price. :thumbsup:
