Need Tyres
« on: 01 October 2008, 19:00 »
Not sure if this is the right section for this but here goes...

I need some tyres for my Audi A8, size is 245/45/18.
Problem is i haven't got loads to spend, so can anyone suggest a cheap tyre thats not total sh!t?

Cheers.

I've used toyo ts1 r and s, both good.  also got falken ze512s which are good too, handy for a bit of extra arch clearance as well!  I've heard good things about uniroyal rainsports from an MR2 owner, he puts them on the back so they must be good  :grin:

Ive got uniroyal rainsports on my mk3... Not sure how much they cost as they were on the car when i bought it but they are a fantastic tyre! Would definately recomend.
