Title: Tyres
Post by: Colh on 08 June 2021, 15:28
Successfully tested the low tyre pressure warning after driving over a screw so now need a replacement.

I was quite pleased to get Goodyear Eagle F1 Supersports fitted but it seems like they’re like hens teeth.  Can’t find any online and the dealer can’t find any either.  Anyone got any suggestions of where’s good to source tyres?

Did you decide on those after the tyre reviews thingy?

They seemed to suggest the eagles, the new BS's or the good old PS4S's...

Personally, I favour the PS4S...

Do they have some VW specific version or something? Look in stock at the first two I checked, Camskill and mytyres

No, it was what the car came with.  Less than 700 miles out of it  :cry:

I was hoping to keep them all the same

Have you tried googling it. I saw plenty online around £89 for the Goodyear Eagle F1 Supersport
225/40 ZR18 (92Y) XL

Thanks folks.  Managed to get one scheduled to fit today.  Weirdly none were coming up earlier but loads available later in the day.

Costco stock these. I got a set for my old A4. Great tyres.
