Supposed to be a high performance budget tyre and a couple of suppliers have told me they are as good if not better than falkens.

I was offered 205/45/17s at 51 inc vat (cost) on the new wheels im after.

Any comments or advice?

If these are crap whats the best reasonably priced tyre.

Omen,

I work for the company that's the sole importer for these tyres.

Now that I've declared my interest, I can tell you that they're a well regarded tyre in the trade and sit in the middle ground between budget & premium tyres. Our sales of this range are growing rapidly, due to a combination of range, attractive pricing, interesting tread patterns and the lifetime warranty.

My boss has them fitted on his BMW 3 series 3.2 Schnitzer!

Mail me off-line if you want to know anything.

Hey lets cut out the middle man fella!! ;-)

How much for 4 205/45/17s in the black stuff!!!

I may mail you tomorrow. Been offered these on a set of OZ Super Leggeras. If they aren't cheaper than the shop that has offered me them in Falkens il probably go with the Falkens.

Any advice via email welcome!

Cheers

hmm - don't think I'd buy a tyre because it had "an interesting tread pattern"

WWSD,

You'd be surprised at the number of people that would

Given that there's such a wide range of UHP tyres available now, looks can be a factor in the purchase.

Simon,

I'd suggest that there's room for negotiation on that price

£87? - you can get Goodyear F1's for that with a proven record.
