you can not get michelin pilot sport for 30 pound each .Ring rsr tyres for good cheap new tyres.

You can get new Nankang's for around £55 each and whilst I will say they are not the greatest they have to be a better bet in the long run than part worns / history unknown.

its not a punture repair. lol they use rubber plug and glue not a nail . You can pick up new tyres at £30 each, you paid 110 for 2 worn tyres ,you must have a money tree.  :grin:

If you're not going to be nice then please little boy, go away
im 34 year old and have work in a tyre company. They pay £1 to get shot of any tyre (scrap) ,go into any tyre place and ask them to phone you when they get the tyres you want part worn and they will charge you £20 to fit each tyre. Its profit on there wages.

I've been really impressed with the michelin pilot sport 3's and I've had them on a few cars. They're around £160 each new. So I thought £110 for part worns with 6mm it's probably worth it! I'd rather have no tyres than Nankangs Wayne!

Depends how you drive, I got my misses contact sports on a KA and the way she drives its overkill for soft rubber, just means they wear quicker even though she drives sensibly, need to get her something cheaper as they have worn way to quick for driving like miss daisy.

With a 1.8T with that torque & lego tyres you will be in wheel spin city, plus its a lardy thing on bends, so I doubt he wants budgets.

Maybe if you lowered your sights to some mid-range tyres instead of ultra-premium in an expensive size you'd be able to afford actual new tyres.  Try Kleber or Falken or Toyo or similar.  Wouldn't be too shoddy I can assure you.

I'd rather have no tyres than Nankangs Wayne!

If those pikey tyres you have put on your car have a puncture odds on one of them will have been run while at low pressure, or even flat.  This will have massively weakened the sidewalls, which is when you're in to blow outs on the motorway.

As has already been said you don't know the history of the tyres when you buy part-worn - you're buying shat someone else has discarded.  You're a damned fool.
Just because you're offended doesn't make you right.

Well thanks for your witty, patronising feedback.

It's not patronising, it's condescending.

You did post up that you were a cheap-ass, who buys pikey tyres. 

Then you were rude about buying new budget tyres, which are probably a lot safer than the dicey old rubber you've been messed about over.

What did you expect from most of the members of this forum?  Praise?
