Sounds good, i picked up four Michellin PS2's for 180 euros a tyre which at the exchange rate of 1.35 to the euro, i think that what we are on now works out to about £130 a tyre so....£530 for four tyres  :sick: fitted and balanced lol

i could have got piolet ps2 for £420 but am on them at the moment and fancied a change as the fronts are getting low and i can use them next winter.  :rolleyes:

Not assymetrics.

GSD3's are the predecessor to new ones
