Need 4 new tyres in the Golf, anyone recommend anything decent but not stupid price!
Always used to use Dunlop SP9000's but stopped making them and quite pricey.
Last pair I got were Falken FK452's just so they all matched, fronts have only lasted 10,000 miles so looking at something else this time!
225 / 40 / 18 or 215 / 40 / 18

Just have a look through camskill mate! Obviously the more you pay the better tyre but yer their tyres seem to be decent and cheap

Camskill are only cheap delivered, they are quite local to me but can get better deals fitted else where usually!
Anyone used the newer Falkens?
Had bridgestones on TT when I first bought it but were noisy, so ended up going for Dunlops again!
Did they last ok Ben?

I use Michelin Pilot Sport 3 - about £800 a set for my motor, worth every penny.

They lasted 8k on my 1.2 Corsa and were utter crap in the wet, saying that, they were the older ones (4 or so years ago).
I rate falkens personally.
