19 inch tyre sizes

Post by cjp2k » Sun Nov 20, 2011 9:12 pm

Hi guys may have the option of a set of msport 19s at a good price, but just checking what the standard tyre sizes are for this?

Trying to work out of its worth it or not

Cheers

On the tyre issue, I was given a price of just over £300 each for two rears. I've checked with my mate at Kwikfit and the price was for bridgestones but they were reinforced not runflats.
The runflats are £745 fitted :cry:
He did say that if I can get them cheaper and delivered to him he will fit them for me FFS! Road tax due, 1st service and two new rears, that's my Christmas presents then!
Anybody get rears cheaper, proper run flats not just reinforced(if there is a difference or not?)

Yep, £306 from Kwik Fit a couple of weeks ago for me.

There is a label on them that says something like "heavy load". The guy at Kwik Fit checked that the existing one and new one both said this.

I got yer pm about that Beemer. I've copied your invoice to my iPad and I'll go in to see him tomorrow. Looking at blackcircles website there seams to be a difference between reinforced and runflats.
Although your receipt looks like it says runflats.
Wife usin the wee Suzuki jeep we bought a couple of month ago for pennies. It was cheaper than winter tyres and ideal for taking to the shoot on a Saturday for the dogs :thumbsup:
So gives me a bit of time to sort as I want tyres on before goin in for service.
