I am looking for 4 new tyres Yes 4!!

I have got some really bad wear on all 4 tyres on the inside rims. I believe that the tracking must be out so i'm in the process of getting it re tracked.

I went to see a good friend who is in the tyre trade and he priced 4 new tyres up I need two 225 35 19 and two 255 30 19

the 225's were coming in at £168 each which were Bridgestones
The 255's were coming at £209 which were also Bridgestones.
Both of these are Runflats

I would like to put non runflats on but my friend said that the 255's only come in Runflats is this true?

Also anyone got any ideas on how to get the price down?

Many thanks in advance for all of your help

Cheers

What a load of tosh. 255 section tyres are available in normal tyres as well as runflats.

You can also look at 235/35/19 and 265/30/19 tyres - it's called a "plus one" size but works very well on the 3 series.


Why don't you look at www.mytyres.co.uk and also www.elitedirect.com



The tyres below have all been recommended by various forum members -

Continental 5P
Michelin 5P
Vredestein Ultrac Sessanta
Falken 452


Continentals will be around £820 a set
Vreds around £620 I think
Falkens around £450
