tyre prices

[super cupra R]

Having done a search on here for which brand of tyre is recommended for the LCR it seems that the Goodyear GSD3's are the ones to go for. Does any one in the Portsmouth/Gosport area know of any where that do these for a good price as Kwik Fit are charging £131 per tyre, Black circles £106, and my tyres £103.

100 quid isnt a bad price fitted for a gsd3. mine cost that and they were only 17"s!!

Sorry should have mentioned that the prices quoted where for the tyre only and not for fitting,balancing,etc.

if you get them fitted for £115 you have done well.

sometimes seen prices on here as low as £106 fitted.. but rarely and often requires a drive..

just find a nice garage who is happ eto fit them in exchange for some cash... probably get the fitted for £110 all in from mytyres that way.

Have you had a look on www.mytyres.co.uk ? i got 2 bridgestone potenzas off there for my ibiza, all be it they are 215/40/17's they cost £161.20p including delivery and vat, then it cost £15 to get them fitted and balanced.

As far as i have tested them, they are pretty damm good, better than my toyo t1 s that i used to have.

Thats good to hear, i was gonna go for the yokohama paradas, but they were a bit dearer, had the same grip and performance in the dry, but the potenzas were much better in the wet.

try phoning round your local tyre places, i has a pair of eagle F1's on my FR for £85 each fitted

Try Micheldever.co.uk. Usually worth the drive even if you live more than 5 miles away

I can't recommend these chaps enough : http://www.eventmobiletyres.com/

No need to even go anywhere, they come to you work or home. I got 2 F1's fully fitted for £206 all in, and never got off my @rse other than to open the door for him. Very polite and no problem at all. A bunch of good eggs.

Initially, i found the potenza RE040's very good in all conditions. However, past about 50% wear their performance deteriorated significantly. Ultimatley they only lasted 9000 miles.

Just stumped up 306.10 for pair of Goodyear F1's, balanced, valvced, + tracked up! Tyres look pretty heavy duty but not really gave them much to moan about yet so will keep you posted! If you dont ever hear from me again, it means they dont grip as well as they look!!!!!!!
