Pour examplé 265 30 19 rear tyre for my bmw Landsail £64 Michelin pilot sport5 £219 True but with bigger /lower profile , normally comes more power. That’s a massive difference , makes you wonder how they are that cheap. 265 is a seriously wide tyre for serious power. Not sure I’d trust them.

The Royal Mile range is guaranteed not to fall apart within the first 1,760 yards of driving. They're round black and ok on the Astra K, all ditches avoided so far. Although we do get an extra 1.5mpg now I've swapped to ContiEcoContact 6's on the front. Down to about 4mm in 12000 miles Missy Charm 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noel Tidybeard Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 the picture in the advert showed a bridgestone of which there are indeed 2 on the front the rears however are thus: to be fair they seem to grip ok Split_Pin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GarageOfLuke Posted August 27, 2022 Share Posted August 27, 2022 Sorry to derail this thread slightly, but I've been negotiating terms on a shipment of track-only 195/50R15 tyres to come in direct from China. Because I'm meeting the MOQ of 500 tyres in the quotes, for an extra £0.53 per tyre, I can remove the "Zeknova RS606" brand/model, and have my own. Don't suppose any of you in this thread fancy making some suggestions? twosmoke300, LightBulbFun and warch 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

China should be in the receiving end of Swindon Special Rain Grip or Prestatyn Happy Fun Lobster tyres in payment for the names we get.
