NEW TYRES!

[pritchp]

just bought two new tyres as the fronts on my car are pretty much on the legal limit now

£268 for two, inc VAT, fitting, balancing, new valve

stuck with the continental Sport Contact 3 195s

cant wait to get them fitted on wednesday! bring on better grip! :mrgreen:

o yer.. and the other ones only last me just under 8000 miles

More then I got to my first set 7000 lol

195s I think are the way

bloody hell is that it 8k miles im on 11k and still got half the tread left on the fronts so im switching em to the back and putting the backs on the front so should get about 22k out of mine .

 

[pritchp]

yup well under 8k :/

the backs are still like new.. but the fronts are completely shot

o well least im driving it like its meant to be driven!
