New wheels hurrah! Need new tyres boo! Any deals?

Post by Mrsbrown » Thu Mar 15, 2012 6:58 pm

Hi all,
Just managed to get some 108's to replace my evil 16 inch 104's...

Bad news is all bridgestone rft's :cry: ohh and the back ones are shot. Hmm need the rears reconditioned due to corrosion so getting expensive this as ideally want to drop rft's as even on the 16's bit pants.

Rfts on the font of the 108's have 4-5mm tread...so options??

Get all new vredestein's....camskill looks like £470 + £60 fitting once they arrive

Get some used rear rft's for £100 used and swap a full set later

Get vredestein's new on the rear only for a month and run mixed set-up

Only recently bought the car so more spenditure tricky past head office approval...

Any magic deals around??

I would go for Vreds all round and sell the RFTs and get £100+ back from the sale proceeds :thumbsup:
