Same tyre, 225 40 18 was £78 fitted. I know someome at goodyear so got lucky! I had 2 put on the front last year from the Internet for £120 each which was still the best retail price

Sort me out ??? !!!
I hate the Bridgestones that came on the car !! but really cannot justify spending so much on new Goodyears so early on, with a good discount & selling my current tyres I might break even??

 :lipsrsealed: :lipsrsealed: :tongue: :tongue:

Haha sorry Scott! I do agree the Bridgestone's are rubbish, my Leon came with them and I couldn't believe the difference after a few miles! I wonder if VW could fit Goodyears before I get mine?!

Was hoping they'd fit them at the factory but that's probably asking a bit much!

The Bridgey's were rubbish all round, except in cold and wet. And the economy was crap with them on.

Heard the Conti's aren't supposed to be bad.

I'm fed up of waiting now...only been a week and a half!
