Pfft. Good tyres and P6000s in the same sentence!

I use mytyres mate and get them delivered to a fitter, if the fitter can't do them at the same price anyway.

AWFUL, AWFUL, AWFUL!

Truly the worst tyres I've ever had teh dis-pleasure of driving on. Supposed to make good track tyres though as they withstand very high temps.

How The Kirmanator ever used to make his valver go as quick as hedid on P6000s I'll never know. :?

2nd that on the Kirminator and on P6000's... utter shite, remoulds would be my first choice if that was all that's left.

2 x 195/50/15s Exalto 2's

YS = £45 EACH

or

2 x 185/55/15's Exalto 2's

YS = £62 EACH

or

4 x Eagle F1's 195/50/15[/quote]

YS = £37.50 EACH


CostCo are probably cheaper than YS

Good prices those Fred, cost co are similar if not a little dearer for the Exaltos, but you get them fitted, which is a bonus, but you need a card which is a minus as I don;t have one...lol

excuse my nuptyness but can I have a little more info on Costco? Been to the website and it doesn't tell you much...

CostCo is a Wholesalers similar to Makro but they have a tyre department aswell but only sell Michelin Tyres. There normal prices are cheaper than Kwik Fit etc.....by a mile and tbh pretty competetive with the likes of MyTyres especially as u can get them fitted at CostCo where as MyTyres u need to find some kind sole to fit them for u.

U need to be a member or know a member to be able to even get in there.

I paid £230 for 4 x 185/55/15's PE2's about 7 months ago....that was with there 20% discount offer......£57.50 a tyre not bad for 185/55's.... :D

People always say how cheap Costco are for tyres but don't you have to own a business and not a member of the public or something?

Im after 2 new tyres. Got a quote for some Toyo Proxes T1-R tyres. £60 each in 185 55 15. Think im gonna get two of these. So it will cost me £120 + £10 for tracking. Is that ok? (Tracking is cheaper due to buying the tyres)

nope, anyone can just walk into Costco, tell them they want to sign up for the year and it's like £30 iirc... you need a driving license, passport, utility bill and one other form of ID then it's a case of doing it there and then pal. It's WELL worth getting a membership.

...weird, must just thought your a dodgy looking mofo? lol

i'll be getting some tyres very shortly, gonna get 2 195/50 PE2's... see if they are better than 185/55... as they are half the price. i prefer the 185/55 PE2 over the 195/50 A539's that's for sure!
