Hi guys found these tyres wondered if anyone has tried them
YOKOHAMA 255/35R18 90Y V103 ADVAN SPORT RUNFLAT
Any ideas on them or should I stick to bridgestones the Yokohamas are only 170 each for rears, thought that was good

I have a 3.0l coupe on 108's
 
courty - do some searching.

Most people drop the RFT's and go for 'normal' tyres. Falkens are a popular choice and you can get a set of 4 for your rims for mid £300's

Can't comment any longer on RFT's as I ditched them ages ago and carry a spare or air pump/goo.
 
there is loads of stuff on here about tyres...ive just bought two michellin RFTS for the rear of mine - BIG improvement of Bridgestone, but £520 for the pair...

That seems a very good price I am looking for a set of falkens can you post a link?
 
alansabout - try any of the online tyre suppliers - kipperona bike references one. I just looked at Camskill at it came out at £364. No doubt you can better that.

To be fair, dont always assume online will be the cheapest - a local tyre fitter was cheaper than the 3 major online ones I looked at

I didn't assume it will be cheaper - just responding to a request for a link, but you are right - the best deals come from extensive searching, and then checking agianst local fitters, online, etc. for the best all in supply, fit and balance figure. My local guys can't even buy them in at the online rates :thumbsdown:
 
Thanks guys think I'll look at the non rft route if there's that much difference in price
