After reading reviews and seeing what was available in stock I went for these and I'm glad I did. Feel different straight away and they can only get better once bedded in. They are more sure footed and there is no sign of tramlining. Definitely quieter than the (Kumho front) (Pirelli rear) that...
These are the Bridgestones http://www.camskill.co.uk/m61b0s134p110582/Bridgestone_Tyres_Car_Bridgestone_S001_Potenza_Bridgestone_S_001_-_225_40_R18_88Y_TL_Fuel_Eff_%3A_G_Wet_Grip%3A_B_NoiseClass%3A_3_Noise%3A_73dB
And these are the Vreds...
Well things are happening with my car going into JKM in Portsmouth for a cam belt, water pump and tensioner. The thermostat and aux belt all changed at the same time. I just need the fuel pump follower done for piece of mind and some new rubber for all corners tomorrow.
I do have another dilemma...
My tyres require changing with noise coming from the rears (I believe this can be quite common) and a lack of grip from the front. I'm going to treat her to some new rubber but what to get? I like the Vredesteins but no one has them in stock near me. I have been offered Bridgestone s001's but...
My car was owned by someone in Waterlooville previously, do you know the car?
My Leon was serviced by JKM before and so it is going back on Tuesday for cam belt, water pump and thermostat before I can carry on with my planned mods.
Been working away for a bit but had time today for a wash, polish and wheels off for a couple of coats of wheel guard.
I used the original holes for the plate screws which is driving me nuts as they are wonky and the screws are black.
I've been working away but flying home tonight. I've got a new thermostat waiting to go on and as soon as it does I'll update this thread. I have been told that the temperature gauge on the clocks is usually quite vague. Don't know if this is common or not?
Sounds like you have single door open on first press and the rest on second press. This can be changed in VCDS and there is a "hot to" in the Leon section. I find mine has to have to distinct presses of the fob or else it doesn't happen.
Hope this helps.
