I believe there's still that Pirelli place in Carlisle, a Michelin factory in Dundee, the aeroplane tyres factory in Birmingham and they must have something at the Avon site in Melksham. Motorbike tyres maybe and those for premium cars? The Michelin factory in Dundee closed in 2020.

coachie Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 When I bought my (fVWSH) Lupo last year it had a complete mismatch of tyres fitted, although there was a pair of Constancys up front. Also a Tracmax Privilo TX2 with added lightning bolts. Not sure if we've had that one before. Dated 2017. Turns out the old dear I bought it from went back to the main dealer every year for a minimal service (netting her a free MOT for the lifetime of the car) then armed with the long list of advisories found the cheapest places to get the work done. bunglebus, sutty2006, Coprolalia and 1 other 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Split_Pin Posted April 29, 2022 Author Share Posted April 29, 2022 I had to get budgets fitted to my old Civic in a hurry and Roadcruzas were what it got. Never had any problems in the wet with them and the 2.2 diesel was pretty quick. I also had Constancy tyres on the front of my Clio 172 when I got it, safe to say they got changed out pretty quick for Falkens! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't remember what car they were on, but I had a set of them and they were absolutely fucking deadly. They were the cheapest 195/50/15 tyre around at the time which was standard 15" hot hatch size UltraWomble 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
